An essential investigation into the murky ethics of AI, one that calls into question the future of photography.
Artificial Intelligence is driving a fourth industrial revolution and, as The Synthetic Eye shows, the centre will not hold.
How can we believe or trust the images we are being shown? What role do photographers, the media and technology companies have in upholding the authenticity of photographs? Can synthetic imagery be utilized to enhance our understanding of our world?
A revelatory roadmap of today’s image universe, The Synthetic Eye explores how Artificial Intelligence has fundamentally transformed our sense of the real, the possible and the actual. Arranged into seven distinct chapters, it interrogates AI’s engagement with history, how it has changed our understanding of reality, and the positive opportunities and dystopian scenarios that lurk beneath the surface of artificially generated images. Review In this smart and searching book, [Fred Ritchin] explores the interaction between digital photography and artificial intelligence systems, which he sees as both positive and terrifying. . . . Ritchin accepts that being skeptical of all images is an obvious response to this creative fakery, but he also sees the potential for photography to reclaim and expand its role as an artform. . . . A thought-provoking study.-- "Kirkus Reviews" (3/15/2025 12:00:00 AM) About the Author Fred Ritchin is a writer, educator and critic.
