433 Will AI Photography Affect the Visitors Experience?

On this week's podcast, the topic is Artificial Intelligence generated photography, and images that are produced that are falsely labelled as being of specific places, such as the Garden of the Gods or other scenic attractions. In the first part of the podcast, Bob chats with Colorado Springs-based photographers Jason Fazio, Daniel Forster and Jae Jarratt. They discuss what "AI photography" is, if it is even an art form, the different types of AI tools, how it affects peoples perception and expectations of photography, and more. In the second part of the podcast, Bob talks with Melissa Williams from Visit Colorado Springs about how they use photography and the controls they place on the use AI imagery. They also discuss how they plan to manage visitors expectations when they see an image that is not actual reality.
