In this episode of The Future of Photography, we delve into the impactful Polaroid Artist Support Program and its substantial influence on photography and art. Notable figures like Ansel Adams, Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, and many others benefitted from this program, using Polaroid's instant film and cameras to create iconic pieces. We examine how a virtually unlimited supply of resources can dramatically shift creative boundaries, significantly affecting aspects like cost, learning, creativity, and business models.

Adrian just bought Luminar Neo. It was a different way of thinking about editing - a different paradigm which took a little while to get. And Capture One just announced their new mobile app which is very much about collaboration on a shoot, not editing images.

Which prompts a conversation about editing paradigms, how they are changing and what we would like to see in the future.

Mentioned in the show: Luminar Neo Capture One mobile Capcut

So are apps like Lightroom really just out of date now?

Picks of the week: True colors under harsh conditions Nikon 1 6.7-13mm lens

The annual geek-tech-fest that is WWDC has attracted magpies Chris and Adrian this week. Could Apple Journal help us review our photos more and record more about what we have done in photography? What would or could we all do with 6 Pro Display XDRs? And of course, how is the Vision Pro going to impact photographers. All this and more!

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.

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!

Picks of the week: GAN-based image editing Boring news E-Ink colour tablet Toshio Shibata
