    what enriches lives:

    1. solving world hunger
    2. doing the taxes and other boring stuff
    3. translation
    4. replacing corrupt governments
    5. cheaper living

    what we use AI for instead:

    1. making society, artists, already poor people poorer
    2. making life more complicated thanks to increased joblessness
    3. causing more polarisation and conflict
    4. helping corrupt governments
    5. more expensive living

    why invent an AI that eats ice cream for you when instead, it should do the dishes and pass the butter?

    high exposure is used on almost any high-level landscape photography, even during daylight and not exclusively auroras. there is nothing wrong with squeezing down a couple of minutes into one picture for a better visualization

    I am all with you on editing images and creating a “fake” reality on social platforms.

    But this poses the question: how much has digital tech become part of our perception and is digitally enhancing a picture really much of a difference if it just helps us see more of the actual reality? I don’t think increasing exposure and contrast is changing reality, it just squeezes down what we cannot see so easily and makes it visible in that narrow slit that our human perception can actually process. We use digital editing nowadays that it has become part of our whole process of perceiving reality, so much so that the digital picture litterally replaces what we saw with our eyes - simply because digital photography has become an extension, much like glasses, shoes, cars are litterally a part of our body.

    Imho as long as it doesn’t create pixels from scratch that weren’t there in the first place, it is still viable to polish a picture of the sky to make it more appealing. I mean no buttcheeks were enhanced here, no eyes replaced or lips turned i to a grotesque sausage mouth freakshow 😅

    Zum Glück bin ich ja Königskind und habe einen Privaten Teich mit Goldapfel. Habe daher den Apfelladen besucht, jedoch keine beschriebene Unendlichkeit vorgefunden und fühle mich jetzt ein bisschen veralbert. Zu eurem Pech benutze ich aber schon seid(t) Ewigkeiten (4 Wochen) eine Anwendung die Mammi, ich meine Memmy heisst und die ist ganz gross…fast so gut wie der bartlose junge Pöbelsohn von Zeus. Aber den kannten nur goldene Apfelteichbesitzer.

    Früher, als ich noch im alten Teepot wohnte und auch nur einen Androiden hatte, da gab es noch Schinkenleser. Der war auch Hammer. Gibt es die auch noch?
