This incident highlights the subtle influence of AI technology in our lives, indicating a growing trend of technology impacting everyday experiences.
Roger, an employee at an Apple store, said, “It’s made like an AI decision and it stitched those two photos together.”
“The iPhone is not a camera, it’s a computer,” photography news site PetaPixel reported. “It takes a series of burst images very quickly even though it’s not a panoramic or a burst.”
PetaPixel continued, “People may not be aware of this, but when they click the shutter on their smartphone it takes multiple images and chooses the best elements in a very short space of time.
“For example, pixel binning occurs in smartphones, which allows the data from four pixels to be combined into one. This increases the overall quality of the image without sacrificing low-light capabilities.”
