With the introduction of Artificial Intelligence to photographic world and the kickstart of GPT.. generative pretrained transformer.. there are images and deepfake videos that are making rounds..
One of the good discussion on this is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2h3Wnyvznk
Combination of AI and Photography is called as “Synthography”. What it means in is Computer will make images which are suggested to it by Humans.
Really the Art in its all forms are always affected by technology. AI is no different, however its a significant event in the timeline of Earth and Humans combined.
Thinking in terms of how art progresses, when a new tech emerges, the first hit to the art is because generally the tech creators are not an artist per-se.
The creators, the technocrats are different in terms of thinking but they work towards a common goal, Art!
