AI did a bit better: this was a street in India and dry so I asked the new AI to make it look like there had been some rain and the road should be wet with suitable reflections. Took only 2 mins and no extra work has been done on this.![]() Click here to comment on this image.

Yes Chris but it has been interesting to try to see what it can do. It took 5 goes to get the Mt Doom and I agree even this is not that realistic.

These are two images I have created in new Photoshop AI and generated them on my computer on a white empty canvas. Each image was generated from nothing in less than 10 mins! They are NOT photographs!![]() Click here to comment on this image. ![]() Click here to comment on this image.

This may shock some of you I promise that this is NOT my photo. Zero blank canvas in Photoshop Beta A1 and asked it to generate a Goldfinch in wood. This came up in 15 seconds as a high-res file!!!![]() Click here to comment on this image.

Graham I think you are being too kind to AI ( or A’up as we say in Yorkshire) I consider that goldfinch to be way inferior to the images you, Jeff, Iain and dare I say, myself produce from a camera, long lens/close location and good lighting. There is no feather detail. It like someone over worked noise reduction creating a smudged effect. The branch is good though! ![]() Let’s be serious for a moment. Where is that image coming from? A stock of royalty free? images at Adobe or in AI’s back pocket or is it seriously accessing google to find out what a goldfinch is and then creating it’s own image to approximate what it believes is a ‘goldfinch in a wood’? I asked Siri to find me some “photographs of goldfinches” it produced these eight. When asked for more it gave another different 8….I didn’t spend more than the time to ask Siri but I bet there will be thousands of options . ![]() Click here to comment on this image. So I am guessing AI is just having a quick word with his/her/they mate Siri……for something to chuck up on the screen. Very clever and useful if you haven’t got a camera or any interest in taking photos yourself. But is it photography? As I said to you when we spoke this morning, were I still in the graphic design business creating brochures, catalogues, adverts and flyers, then I dare say being able to quickly & cheaply conjure up an exotic image for a client that would take hours manually, would be an advantage. I can see modern graphic designers and digital imagers jumping at this feature. But it’s not for me. Were I to delegate responsibility for image selection/creation to a third person (let alone a robot) I would very soon lose interest in taking photos and sell my equipment! When we spoke about your sea shore image I said that the figure and the strange shaped dog? were at odds with the contrast of the rest of the image. I am also bemused why AI has chosen a couple walking INTO the sea. So it’s quick and it might fool a lot of people out there but to me as a photographer it’s not quite realistic. Sorry …..nice try AI, but no cigar.

I think what Eric says is right, they are good but not yet great. I had a red kite on a post and asked AI to put it in the woods, it took 8 images before I got one that I thought was ok but not good enough.
