@beep @exchgr it kinda makes sense, in retrospect, that TVs would start doing image processing in the same way that phone cameras have also been doing realtime image processing

@danhon @beep sure, but it (usually) makes for a miserable viewing experience when a cinematographer has gone out of their way to make a movie look a certain way and the tv alters that. most egregious example: frame interpolation

@exchgr @beep I didn't say I liked it or agreed with it. I meant that “oh, well now that the software has been shown to exist in one domain, it's just a matter of time until it's applied to another". It's also on the heels of what is apparently a shitty, AI-upscaled 4K release of The Abyss and True Lies.

@danhon @beep gotcha. and oh yikes, just looked at some screenshots and they look horrible lol

@danhon @beep @exchgr I need to dig into my wifi router settings so that I can selectively disable certain smart devices: Turn it on briefly to setup and once a year for updates. But most of the year, the device is cut off (I have a separate streaming box)

Let the Right Hon In, phone cameras are also overstepping lately. In my opinion, if post-processing involves object recognition and/or image segmentation and treats different parts of the image differently, it has no right to be called photography. AI that influences the actual output pixels is also no-go (but the kind that picks the best shot out of a burst is fine).

@beep actually i’m totally fine with things like DLSS and DLAA. but only for games, and definitely only in the game machine, not in the tv

@exchgr yeah. i feel like my phone’s just started crossing the line with automatic image enhancements i really, really wish were opt-in

ah, well, nevertheless,

@beep this is partly why i mostly prefer to shoot with a mirrorless these days
