I’m asking you this question what is the significance of this tech?

Yes but photoshop may buy this and make profit

At the rate image generation is progressing, trying to corner a specific application will be difficult. I say this after seeing DALL:E take payments for their service for maybe 3 months before stable diffusion completely kneecapped them with an open source program that does their tech better.

That good for them but photoshop is paid service and there isn’t much free service software that are huge so it’s good they made it free

I mean about a month ago people were saying that making smaller/more sophisticated edits or several similar iterations of one image would only be possible in years if at all.

How long until Photoshop is replaced? If it's just a couple of years, we can "accurately" predict that it'll be in a few months.

Your enemy doing a Nazi salute instead of just waving? Every time this kind of tech improves, our ability to trust images decreases.

I mean you can already photoshop it so… I don’t expect it to increase that much it’s just gonna be easier

It's the speed and ease that makes misinformation so powerful

I wonder how that will shape society and if software developers could make things that detect those kind of changes or how people communicate will differ…..I doubt majority of people are gonna use it tho

I think that detection of these images will happen, but it is always going to follow rather than lead.

Human nature of believing whatever confirms our biases will make this tech truly scary.

And yes I'm pessimistic 😂

Especially conspiracy theorist who keep bunch of images that absolutely have no source…they definitely would go crazy with that tech
