*With the advent of so-called AI (artificial intelligence) it’s worth noting here, after a young teen challenged me at the market about using AI. I had to explain I don’t use ‘AI’ to produce my photographic images – I have written a post years ago (31/7/2010) on my process here – Macro Illustrated
AI generated imagery is novel, but as with all novelty it wears off. And seeing how cheap it is to produce, and almost anyone can use AI to produce such imagery, the market for ‘real’ photography will all but disappear in the near future.
The introduction of cheap digital cameras more or less killed the market for real photographers. AI looks like being the last nail in that coffin.
Maybe there will remain or re-emerge a market for real photography at some time in the future, who knows.
