It will be interesting to see how AI generated images evolve technologically as they meld their way into the vast universe of visual imagery around us. Their niche will grow, but with that, I feel the demand for authenticity will increase with it, adding value to the work of those genuine creators who produce high-quality visual images. It brings to mind the value a genuine luxury brand product holds over a good “knock-off,” even when it might be difficult to tell the difference between the two. Of course, these are just my early musings on AI generated images at this point, and I could be completely wrong on that one.
I enjoy looking back on so many technologies that were introduced over the years, the pundits predictions on their future impact at the time, followed by the realities that unfolded into the future afterward. Learning how to adapt to those new realities is another matter altogether.
