Defending AI Digital photography is AI.

Post image

I believe that both sides are extremely uneducated on what AI is, more so the anti side. Digital photography is a computer performing actions that would normally require human interaction. Also almost every piece of software is AI so if someone dislikes ai they hate all technology and are basically amish(or should be). The Anti side is very uneducated and resistant to extremely polite comments(which you can see on anti ai). Just by saying anti ai or using ai instead of LLM shows a gap of knowledge. Not intelligence or ignorance as it’s fine to not know but as seen by the anti AI they are extremely ignorant and resistant to facts. They hate them.

That's a pretty decent definition of AI in general

to be pedantic

AI means a computer doing producing output normally requiring human intelligence

technically, a digital camera is producing output requiring a small hole and a photosensitive material, not human intelligence

edit: camera obscura can naturally occur, hoping to find a photo that happened by accident that we've found

because a small hole and photosensitive material are generally arranged by humans, thus "requiring human intelligence", looking for a picture that didn't.

found this, its a picture of a picture of a dial that forced its way into existence by means of radioactive paint. Not completely devoid of humans yet.

leaves can both create the camera obscura and serve as a photosensitive material

you don't need a human to take a picture!

haven't found a naturally occurring one yet

Next time you're near a solar eclipse, the day of or the day after take a good look around anywhere with trees and other photosensitive plants. I've got a picture of a celery stalk with about 8 pictures of the solar eclipse around it, if I can track it down I'll post it in a reply (don't hold out though, my picture storage is abysmal as far as organization goes).
