MODERATORS
Nah, the hivemind is being cringe as shit rn.
Recreating an image with Ai is not the same even remotely from capturing raw data directly from a digital sensor and cranking the exposure up.
The Ai is approximating what it sees, digital sensors are not, they don't approximate anything. It's either there or they don't see it.
objective and subjective
Modern phone cameras use AI to fill in the gaps in low light photos.
Your brain uses assumptions to fill in missing data like the blind spot in your retina.
The gateway to the Ai processing is still the sensor used. Modern mirrorless digital cameras can use Ai tools internally, but the starting medium is always what is captured to begin with.
Wasn't the gateway to the black hole image the measurements NASA made?
