Key Takeaways:
- **AI expands artistic freedom, not replaces artists – **AI removes physical limitations, allowing artists to create purely from imagination. But vision, composition, and storytelling remain essential—great art is still shaped by human experience.
- **Surprise fuels creativity – **Whether capturing an unexpected moment in street photography or experimenting with AI-generated images, Boris believes that embracing the unpredictable is key to artistic innovation.
- **AI isn’t photography—it needs its own category **– Boris argues that AI-generated images aren’t made with light and shouldn’t compete in photography contests. Instead, he calls for a new category—promptography—to recognize AI’s distinct creative process.
