They just partnered with Adobe. I have mixed feelings about this, as someone working in the creative industries. I have used AI to do some amazing things, and recently figured out how to use Claude to automate some boring, non-creative and time-consuming worklflows. This all, in theory is freeing me up to spend more time on the fun creative stuff, the problem is that nobody values creativity any more because they can just outsource that to AI.
Maybe not particularly relevant in your industry, but I’ve been freelancing for a few years now and found physically going in to a company is the best way to get new clients. It’s very easy to ignore emails and calls, making a connection in the real world is so much more engaging. I have given up on LinkedIn and going after work the traditional way.
Seems like user error, I’m no programmer but even I lnow you don’t give an agent access to critical things, and Claude is very insistent at asking for permission at every step.
My first thought was maybe Japan has strong consuner protection/advertising laws. For a standard side shot they tilt the buns back and push ingredients to the front, which one could argue is misleading, but by showing the bun obviously askew they can show more filling while shielding themselves from litigation. Anything they do will be the result of regional focus groups and lawyers.
I wonder if the tethering is any good. Lightroom is pretty bad compared to Capture One and I’m not aware of many other alternatives.
I think we hit peak ads in '98 with this:
Don’t make em like that anymore, or do they? I wouldn’t know.
Wow that must be a US thing then, NHS in the UK definitely doesn’t send unqualified midwives into the field!
Aren’t midwives, like, experts in childbirth tho?
I played with a similar setup using xbox 360 kinect, very fun tech!

The evolution of this is how they do ‘virtual production’, LED walls and tracked camera using realtime rendered scenes in Unreal Engine. You could make a relatively cheap version using something like Valve Lighthouses and a projector.
