261 Adobe, Andy, and AI Innovations

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat! This week, we delve into Photoshop's Generative Fill, a testament to Adobe's push for AI integration, which contrasts Serif's less AI-focused approach. The recent Supreme Court ruling on the Warhol Foundation vs. Goldsmith case raises important discussions on copyright infringement and fair use, potentially influencing future creative endeavors. We then turn our attention to DragGAN, a groundbreaking AI tool that could drastically alter the landscape of image editing. For our pick of the week, we spotlight BLIP Diffusion, a fascinating AI-powered technology set to make waves in the digital world.

260 Photography is NOT dead

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat! Chris has been leading a photography workshop. And in the whole week, no-one was interested in AI - which Chris found very strange 😂. So apparently AI is not replacing photography. But it's becoming clear that AI-based tools will help us create and edit our photos. Discuss!

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat! Two new Monchrom(e) cameras have been announced recently - one from Leica and one from Pentax.

257 Odcasts Podcasts

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat! Two things this week. First, given that an AI has won a photo contest now and the artist refused the prize, what does that actually mean for photography? More a conversation about the nature of artistic processes than about AI tech - more philosophical really. Jeremiah shares some photos with an interesting process to test our ideas. Second, "is the 'have-a-go' podcaster era coming to an end"? So asks a monolithic broadcaster 😂 and we have some opinions!

255 Legacy

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat! Revisiting - because it's important - the topic of how to preserve our creative and cultural legacy. What formats (physical and digital) might last? What archival services do we need? Is it eogtistical to want a legacy? Is it important culturally? Do we just need loads of data to train the AIs?

254 DPReview is dead! Long live DPReview!

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat! Devastating earthquake or storm in a teacup? Many of us have used and loved DPReview.com over the years and soon it will be shut down. As you might expect from TFOP, our conversation starts here by asking "what does it all mean?" and then ranges far and wide 😂. But what happens to the enormously valuable resource that dpreview.com has created over the last 25 years? It is reported that the Internet Archive will host a backup to keep it available for us all. Here's hoping!
