My 2c.....
I’m not across this AI stuff and so am unsure of what it consists of so can’t comment from a technical viewpoint however........
....my view is if the digital data that was captured by the imager is the only data used in the picture then that is still an original picture that the imager can call their own work. It’s no different from using a sharpen tool, decon or even assigning colours to a NB filter.
Having said that though, if data is being pulled from an external source and added to the imagers data then it’s a composite and should only be partially attributed to the imager.
I don’t think there a difference between ‘a small enhancement’ or ‘replaced 50% with other people’s work’. Skill, equipment, understanding and knowledge is what makes a great imager. Adding other people’s data to your own makes a great artist.
.....not pointing fingers andy, as I said, I don’t know how this AI stuff works.

That is not how the Topaz suite works though, it is not importing data from other sources and inserting it, it is extrapolating detail that is not visible from detail that is. The question becomes how much sharpening it can do before it is inventing detail, not revealing it.
People importing data from other sources is a whole other kettle of fish.
