AI and photography

I’ll make this simple - I am against any and all forms of AI to be used in photography. Period. Full Stop.

I do not believe that AI has any place in photography, and that usage of it detracts from the efforts by photographers to formulate and capture their subjects in their art form. I know that people are now using it for their own creations, but I am not in favor of AI in any art form. I find it to be a form of cheating, and nobody is going to argue with me that it’s an art form in and of itself. We, as photographers, must protect our art form from AI now before it’s too late. Just my 0.02, YMMV.
