You Can Fake a Group Picture With Google’s ‘Add Me’, but It Doesn’t Always Work
Google’s Add Me feature for Pixel 9 phones allows you to add the photographer into a group photo. Should creating a picture of a moment that never actually happened with this augmented reality feature and other AI tools be cause for concern?

I don’t get this fake photo comments, it’s not fake persay, it’s 2 photos 10 seconds parts merging. A fake photo would be adding a person or item that was not there at that time. Finally family photos will include every member of the family.

It’s a moment which never happened.. so it’s fake… You make pictures to catch moments!
@mr.joshmateo
August 29, 2024 at 7:21 pm
@wookiewantacookie is right. If this were the real meaning of a photograph using film media. You can perform this with double exposure but it takes actual framing skill and proper exposure and is not considered computational photography like these Google ai tools/edits

This is a wonderful feature. Those negative comments will always be there…..some people see the glass half empty while others see it half full 🤷🏽♂️. Having a feature like this is an invaluable tool to create invaluable memories, however you want those memories to be.
@myfakeguuglaccount8307
August 29, 2024 at 10:15 am
So…fake. You can “add yourself” to the interior of my private jet, but that is a “memory” you will never have.
Now, to create fiction? Yes; killer feature
@archangel115
August 29, 2024 at 2:08 pm
@@myfakeguuglaccount8307 Media manipulation is nothing new. The same way there’s picture filters or the same way that people can appreciate and experience an artistic creation, even though it is “fake”, people can find use and a positive relation to their pictures where they are the protagonists of their creation. Again….glass half empty or half full 🤷🏽♂️. It’s really up to yourself as an individual what position or attitude you have towards a tool and not to those around you.
@myfakeguuglaccount8307

Its comical people asking what’s a photo but Photoshop has been around for ages. I guess if this was part of Apple intelligence people would be glazing it as groundbreaking

August 29, 2024 at 11:02 am
That’s my point.
People have been using PS for a long time now and accept it, but Google enters the scene with something identical but on device, they hate it and call it fake.
And as you said, is it was apple, they will call it revolutionary and magic

Why even take a photo? You could have generated every photo in the video. Which begs the question: What’s the point of the phone camera, or the Pixel series? 🤔

@myfakeguuglaccount8307
August 29, 2024 at 2:33 pm
@Nightflash28 Yet respond you did, with literally nothing substantive. Fact is: there is no “picture” Google can’t generate without a camera. I can literally put myself in front of the Giza pyramids, having never been there, and you’d never know the difference. Putting myself in front of the phone booth in the video is child’s play.

It’s a big deal, considering that Photoshop is a somewhat expensive paid software and requires some degree of training to be able to use.

Photographers are just mad because everyone and their mom can do this in the blink of an eye without going into Photoshop or some paid software to do it. Stop it

i mean people who study for years to learn a skill and then AI just makes it easier for everyone in a day, possibly losing jobs that took years to learn. i can feel their pain. but that’s just tech, all we can do is cry about it. i was in digital art but now people would rather use AI than hire, so i’m back to customer service. AI will probably make better CSR in the future forcing me to go door to door lawn mowing for change, even then AI will make roomba garden edition. so i’ll probably sell my body to lonely grandmas… even then… i don’t know.

This tool is perfect for a group of drunk people to play with.
In terms of ethics, you’ve always been able to manipulate photos even before digital photography, but with tools to manipulate photos being far more widespread then people will become more skeptical of photos.
About 25 years ago I did a night school course in photography and the teacher told us a story how she had to photograph a busy street which was fall of people walking past a shop however she had to make it look like the street was empty, it was easy for her because she was a university lecturer in photography, this was 25 years ago when people would believe photos actually happened. Now if you see a photo people don’t believe it, because they shouldn’t believe it.

it’s “Photo vs picture”. These AI edits make it a picture. No longer a photo. Introducing/removing something on a photo that wasn’t there originally changes it into a picture. Adding a person, reshaping a face, removing a blemish those are all pictures.

So, airbrushing has been around for over a century and photoshopping images has been around for several decades, both of which have greatly influenced how we view the human form since their inception, but now all of a sudden altering photos is a bad thing??? All these naysayers need to get over themselves.
