The Nerdy Photographer Podcast

Are you, like me, slightly concerned with how advancements in AI are effecting the photography industry? On this episode of the Nerdy Photographer Podcast, we're diving deep into the world of AI and how it's changing the game when it comes to photography, photo editing, and art.

AI, or artificial intelligence, is quickly becoming a powerful tool in the photography world. From cameras that use AI to automatically adjust settings based on the scene, to software that can analyze photos and make editing suggestions, the possibilities are endless. But with all this new technology comes some important questions. How will AI change the way we approach photography and art? What does it mean for the role of the photographer and the artist? And perhaps most importantly, what are the ethical considerations when it comes to using AI in photography and art?

Seriously, since recording this episode, there have been several major AI advancement/announcements from Adobe's new AI art generator, Firefly, to Levi's announcing they will start using AI generated models to increase "diversity". Yeah, they really said that.

In this episode, we'll be exploring all of these questions and more, looking at real-world examples of AI in action, and discussing the implications of this new technology for the future of photography and art.

So sit back, relax, and join us as we explore the fascinating world of AI and its impact on the photography industry. Whether you're a photographer, artist, or just someone interested in the cutting edge of technology, this episode is sure to be a thought-provoking and informative journey.
