This type of extravagant technological solution feels like something Aperture Science would make

I can't imagine anyone other than tech bros actually using this in any scenario

It's a cool art project.

AI image generation aside, this sort of thing might be genuinely useful for someone who is blind or low vision. It’s like alt text for the world.

actually, Google was really working on something like this, based on googlestreet images, gps, accelerometer, time, AI etc... to deduce the image and sell cameraless smartphone.

what a stupid idea, honestly

  1. because it is indeed stupid: the most inefficient way to provide an existing and cheap feature
  2. cameras are actually the selling point of most the expensive smartphone
  3. I WANT to capture it myself

This is one of those "it's cool!" things that people took way too far

@sexy_peach what if the AI doesn't already have the image 👀 ?

[–] schizanon@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

That's not how AI works

Looks like a lot of unnecessary extra steps for worse effect.

It is incredibly ironic though because back in the days photography was attacked as the thing that would "destroy art".
