PLEASE Read ALL: Click on the image to enlarge it. Then toggle between the fast to see the overview contrast. I used the free test option of an AI software called Repairit from Wondershare. In the software, I then selected the tool option called Remove Scratches and Colorize, and let it do its thing. Thierry Legault reached out to me in a post from my other image with the ISS and CSS in the same combined image from the year 2022. He said: Philip there is no miracle, those "images" show details that you have not recorded. That means that the AI application you have used uses closeups of the stations taken from space and/or 3D models and uses yours to put them in the same orientation. He also added Happy New Year and be careful about AI!!
Damian Peach said to me:
This is most interesting, Philip. The AI result looks extremely convincing. Sadly, this kind of 'photography' will be easy to produce such fake images, and 99% of people will not be able to tell that this was not actually taken by the observer. AI is still in its infancy, and its ability will only improve. The good news is that with objects like Jupiter, they are highly dynamic, which makes producing such images far more difficult. Photography of all kinds really is heading into uncharted waters....and I think it's going to be those producing genuine work who are going to have the hardest time living in this new AI dominated reality. People have never been more indeed of critical thinking ability than at present.
With all that said and out of the way. I am now sharing the 1st image from 2017, which I took before any AI processing. Then you will see in the 2nd image, after using the AI tool option called Remove Scratches and Colorize software Repairit from Wondershare. The software can produce false structures. It is not perfect, but it was interesting to see how it interpreted my original mono image and gave it false color and shapes. I hope you like the fact that I took the time to share my test results.
I thought I would like to add this information about copyright.
When You Can Claim Copyright Assistive Use:
You can claim copyright if you use software (like Lightroom, Photoshop, or specialized AI tools) as an assistive tool to enhance your original work. Copyright exists from the moment your original work is "fixed" (e.g., the moment you take a photo).
Original Creative Choices: If the software-processed image reflects your artistic choices—such as specific angle, lighting, or complex manual edits—you retain the copyright.
Creative Arrangements: You may claim copyright for a "compilation" if you arrange software-generated elements in a unique, human-authored way (e.g., a comic book where the layout and text are yours even if individual backgrounds were AI-generated).
Modification of Outputs: If you significantly modify a software-generated output with your own original creative expression, you may claim copyright for your specific contributions.
Kind Regards To ALL and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR 🙂
