Here is a photograph generated by AI that won an award at the recent Sony World Photography Awards.
The "photo" https://edition.cnn.com/style/article/ai-photo-win-sony-scli-intl/index.html
Boris Eldagsen, a photographer from Berlin, won in the "Open Creative" category". with his AI image "The Electrician" It was generated by an AI DALL-E2 generator. He jumped on stage, uninvited, at Somerset House, in London, to make the point that AI images were not photography and should not be considered in competitions. He said, "I applied as a cheeky monkey to find out if the competitions are prepared for AI images to enter.They are not. AI images and photography should not compete with each other in an award like this.They are different entities. AI is not photography.Therefore I will not accept the award". Recent high-profile AI images have also raised concerns. The Pope wearing a puffer jacket and Donald Trump being arrested.
Here's the Pope "photo" https://edition.cnn.com/videos/busi...ke-ai-generated-photo-cnntm-cprog-sot-vpx.cnn
and DT...in fact the BBC has also shown a photo of Trump praying that he authorised, as well as his "arrest" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-65069316
I thought it might generate some interesting discussion on here. I've checked back through the threads to September 2020 and nothing relating to it has been posted.
