Should photographers worry about AI?
From the mind of Gonzalo Rodriguez
Should photographers worry about AI? I, without hesitation, say NO. Photographers can welcome it with open arms and an open mind. AI won’t steal your gigs. AI will help you streamline your editing, blogging, and assist with your marketing.
Until artificial intelligence can program a drone and attach a camera to it, I won’t be scared. AI also would need to program poses to flatter body types and gender. Imagine conversing with a drone trying to make you feel comfortable. AI won’t be able to photograph your wedding or pose your newborn baby.
What artificial intelligence is very helpful with is the behind the scenes business stuff. I’ve seen AI make Photoshop a literal cheat code. Closed eyes can be replaced with opened eyes with a lasso tool and typing a few words. Squarespace added AI to blogs. The 2nd half of this blog was AI generated. It did pretty well.
