  • pretty sure even Xiaomi can do it, just disable stupid AI Camera and/or Super Moon, one of the first things I disable in camera on all Xiaomi phones (wife and me both have Xiaomi 13t and 13 respectively), don't forget also to disable Beautify (switch to Original) for selfie camera and don't remember what is the default selfie mirroring setting…

  • It’s a legit possibility that “FaceTime” in the future will be super low bandwidth because the phones on each end do local animations of a deepfaked/skinned model to match live capture rather than transmit high resolution video.

  • I got some amazing photos through a set of eclipse viewing glasses on my Vivo x300 pro. If I'd been a bit more organized and set up a stand and taped the glasses onto the phone I think I could have taken a video of the whole thing in incredible quality. But I just held the glasses in front of the lens and it worked.What I found though was that I…

  • Interestingly, one of their AI filters is actually called "Super Moon":4.14.3 Camera Image OptimizationThe camera image optimization AI algorithm is mainly used in the following camera features: Super Moon, AI Camera, Document Mode, Front Portrait Mode with Background Blurring, and Beautify.

  • The year is 2036, when dialed up to maximum space saving, the latest generation of smart phones now turn camera pictures to a textual description and later when you want to view them, re-generate them on the fly using a text2image model. Not that "saving space" really means something, the phones refuse to unlock if they don't have an internet…

  • With the rise of AI-generated content I would actually love a camera with no post-processing by default and a watermarking system that proves the picture is authentic. I can see Apple going that way eventually.

  • I still struggle with the idea that the chinese olympics had both CGI fireworks and real firework footage mixed together.I cant fathom how this was a "if they know it doesnt matter at all" situation.A complete acceptance of real / fake, who cares its about stuff looking great.I mean I can be told it but I cant understand why you would waste…

  • A lot of smartphones support raw format.It's fascinating to see how much post-processing gets done.

  • In the future, it might be extremely hard to find a camera which records exactly what is in front of it :D

  • It remains incredibly funny that they never turned off this "fake moon" feature after being caught the first time
