AI Has Officially Destroyed Commercial Photography

AI image generation has been incredible for the last year, but it was still extremely difficult to generate realistic images with specific subjects, people, or products. Google's new AI model can finally do it, marking the end of the commercial photography industry. As artists, we like to pretend that companies respect our work; that they are willing to pay a premium for our photos because of some intrinsic artistic value, but in reality, it's simply a business expense. Photography, or imagery in general, is a small line item on the marketing budget.
