My giraffe in a jacket – more AI madness
I’ve been experimenting with AI, and having considerable success. In previous blogs I wrote about my tremendous success with ChatGPT, with which I was able to convert printed text into editable text for a book I was trying to re-publish … Continue reading
This one is really impressive! AI noise reduction
Yesterday I wrote about using the new AI Erase function in Adobe Camera Raw. You can read about that here. This past week I photographed the annual Festival Mozaic summer music festival. That involved 19 events in both San Luis … Continue reading
Another victory
for automated intelligence in photography
A few weeks back I wrote about my success in working with ChatGPT to manage some very complex text, making it editable, and making it possible for me to re-publish two out-of-print catalogs of matrices for Linotype and Intertype machines. … Continue reading
