It is a good idea to raise this concern as Photoshop now bears AI functions that are true photoshop and therefore should be used in order to produce PSC entries. Except it's far from doing the whole job itself...but hmmm it's already pretty awesome as it makes some impossible things possible.

So it's not like you click on a plugin's button , get a fancy effect , save and post...it implies some work but look

Photoshop now bears that, so it's how photoshop itself has evolved and therefore psc users will get to know that tool, and to recognise it within an entry , and to judge honestly and knowingly

That stuff is very welcome I have tried it and it does pretty awesome things. Seriously welcome AI within Photoshop natively like I do because it will make things better for all, even here at psc.

yeah but when you photoshop for work or run a business you must subscribe monthly and and have the genuine version so I'm there

anyway it look like all of today's images were created using AI...or I'm wrong...

You're wrong.

You're wrong. :)[/quote]

mine was using Photoshop only and it's AI

good....most of them I recognise

Personally I feel any external with a bit of the source "stuck in", whether AI or otherwise isn't great chopping. I've never knowly used any AI I'm more than happy to list my sources, I just often don't get the to do so.

As Bob said, not all us can afford PS, I use photofiltre 7 which is pretty basic by comparison, but I'm usually happy with my results, it just takes a lot longer to do what PS can do relatively quickly. I've tried other freeware and it's just too steep a learning curve for me to persist with (As I suspect PS would be if I ever tried it)

I'm also a little confused by what the poll answers actually mean

jools2

people who can draw can use many other apps than ps, I can't draw though :p
some people just paint stuff on photos and it looks real

I was reticent but AI is a dream that has come true to anyone who wants to make awesome images of anything, paintings, photos, photo-montage, etc

it allows you to produce your own sources without paying, and very often to make complete amazing images. try google search "Bing image creation" it is 100% free, and "midjourney" (paid).have fun ;)
