Bro, this only applies to the moon and the "AI" is what I mean by image optimization. All phones optimize the image, and yes the moon may be even more with AI, but its still the same moon. What difference does it make? It's still the dang moon, same moon phases, same colors, I took one white and orange, different phases, and its accurste to what it looks like in real life when it was blood moon, etc. It's not "fake" because fake implies its 100% fabrication the moon picture out of nothing but go ahead keep spweing hate when you literally have a samsung so idk why tf ur hating honestly

The difference is it's generating data using AI where there was none... That is fake. Do you consider AI generated images "real"? It's as though you didn't even read my comment, let alone any of the tests and studies done on the topic. It's not using AI super resolution. It's not using deconvolution. It's generating data using a Neural Network where there is no data in the image.

That is literally bs since the moon "is there" bro if your gonna spit something back it up because saying "its not there" is such bull because its not like im pointing my camera to a blank night sky tf

That was way more than I was willing to write, the moon shot is fake and a great parlor trick!

Yeah I'm not even saying it's a bad thing. It's a mix of real and fake generated data blended together in a tasteful way but I feel understanding how it creates the completed image is valuable. Some misunderstand these systems and the limitations of the optics and sensors of these phones. Still however, I love my phone and it takes nice pics for a cellphone regardless.

It begs for the question, what is a real photo now? Everything now is computational photography, even professional photographers who shoot in raw and do all the magic in post. It's everywhere now.

Every picture our phones take are technically fake, it is computational photography done with algorithms to make everyone to be able to point and shoot and get pleasing photos.

So, no, that moon shot is done by a computer filling in what should be there.

But it is there, that moon is there and its the correct phases, color, how it looks in real life, and it doesn't do this with a small speck of light that many apple users claim that any white sphere bright object will "transform" into a moon and it's proven wrong. But yes, all phones are computational photography

The "moon" is there. Yes. But your camera is not resolving it in those situations, not in that detail, not in that clarity, the information is not there. The AI knows it's supposed to be a moon, such as generating moon textures over shapes placed over images of a moon, it uses a Neural Network trained on images of the moon to generate a moon image where it knows it's supposed to be.

This is no different than using AI to generate an image of a rabbit into a photo vs actually taking a photo of a rabbit. Yes the moon is "there" but what you're seeing in the end result is generated data that did not exist, not optimized data that did exist.

If you wish to not look it up, read the testing methodologies, see the tests and results yourself and instead make dead end arguments based on misunderstandings then I'll just let ya be. Cheers.

I agree, the moon shots are a bit hit or miss with blurriness and quality, it works best when you adjust the brightness lower and hold your phone steady, and they did say they will improve night mode as there is a glitch currently when shooting night videos of the sky, etc. But im sure they will update.
