Not to victim-shame or anything, but that sounds more like more than one safety mechanism failed, the convincing tech only being a rather small part of it?

Can it edit the photo at the original resolution? Most of my photos these days are 48MP and I don't want to lose a ton of resolution just to edit them.
Great question. I really doubt it would be able to support any resolution. I'm sure that behind the scenes it scales it down to somewhere around 1 mp before processing even if they decide to upscale and return it back at the original resolution.

I am flabbergasted that you both get scammed. I would understand if this was two years ago, but now? Do people really not know about these scams? I can already see down votes coming for victim blaming, but this is to me really shocking. Notice that there isn't "tell hn: don't get scammed by deep fake crypto Elon" because people who usually posts also consider this general knowledge. That's why it's so effective I gue…
Hey it takes courage to admit to it. That’s admirable.
Reason people do is because we dont talk of risks often enough.

#315Are men not attractive? Or perhaps for Google, this blog is a targeted content? But who is it targeting? I would like to see the reasoning behind using all women images (at the least the top/first ones) to show off the model capabilities. I have noticed this trend in the image manipulation business a lot.

Retouching is an art. To the pro, this is just another tool to increase efficiency. You pay them not just for knowing how to use Photoshop, but for exercising good judgement. That said, I imagine this will shrink the field, since fewer retouchers will be able to do the same work, unless the amount of work goes up commensurately. Will people get more retouching done if the price goes down? Not sure.
Especially colouring, In college I worked for a dude who would re-colour old B&Ws for people, 60% the work (the work he enjoyed) was trying to research enough to know reasonably well what colour something actually ought to be, not just what we thought looked good.

#319I am glad that I never decided to become a photoshop pro. I always contemplated about it, seemed attractive for a while, but glad that I decided against it. RIP r/photoshopbattles. It was in the endless list of new shiny 'skills' that feels good to have. Now I can use nano-banana instead. Other models will soon follow, I am sure.
Interesting take. I'm a programmer, but learned Photoshop in the early 2000s and had a blast making and editing images for fun. Sure, the generative models today can do a far better job than anything I could come up with, but that doesn't detract from the experience and skills I picked up over the years. If anything, knowing Photoshop (I use Affinity Designer/Photo these days) is actually incredibly useful to finesse…
