“It's not as simple as a real image and a fake image”: Qualcomm intervenes in the debate over AI photo editing


I felt like I'd opened a can of worms when I asked Samsung about its stance on AI photo editing in Galaxy Unpacked in January. “There is no real picture,” Patrick Chomet, Samsung's chief customer experience officer, told me at the time, a phrase tinged with nihilism that, to be fair, emerged as part of a nuanced and perfectly valid philosophical commentary on reality. . nature of the photograph (in the same interview, Chomet rightly spoke of the importance of validating authenticity).

Marques Brownlee recently included Chomet's quote in an X post highlighting the different opinions of Samsung, Apple and Google on this same topic. Still, ultimately all major phone manufacturers offer similar editing features (Magic Eraser, Clean Up, AI Eraser, etc.).
