In this episode of Off the Memory Card, we're digging into the complex relationship between photography and artificial intelligence (AI). I touch on the spectrum of opinions, from complete rejection to full automation... and emphasize the importance of finding a middle ground. I'm sharing my perspective on using AI as a tool to enhance creativity rather than replace it, particularly in the editing process. I highlight the evolution of editing tools and the potential for AI to save time, while also cautioning against over-reliance on technology. Ultimately, I'm encouraging photographers to adapt to changes in the industry while maintaining their unique artistic voice.
