More of a quirk of panoramic pictures than anything else, I'd have thought you would've pointed to the use of colours, saturation, or lighting in standard iOS photos - it's why I swapped to Halide.

I'm actually more concerned about the amount of hubris apparent in that conversation - and about the ease with which they discuss making certain actions deliberately more difficult, just because they have an opinion about them.
Maybe they need a reminder that they manufacture tools - which their users employ to put their intentions into reality.
I don't really want to have a philosophical debate with my microwave whether or not heating this particular fast food item is really a good for my health, for the environment and for society in general when I just want something for lunch.
In contrast, they seem to see themselves as policymakers who want to decide what kind of intentions their users should have in the first place.

Tools are manufactured with a purpose and intention in mind. It is perfectly reasonable and desirable for the creator of a tool to think about how it is going to be used.
Alfred Nobel invented dynamite and was dismayed by its use for war. Ethan Zuckerman apologised for the pop-up ad. John Larson invented the polygraph then spent four decades rallying against it. John Sylvan regretted having invented coffee capsules because of their environmental impact.
If anything, we need more consciousness put into the creation and distribution of tools, not less. Take responsibility for what you make.
Metadata ... I suspect steganography is being employed here as well, but will they tell us?
Always bypassed with an image of the screen by a different device.
They'd already crossed that bridge with this[0].

Well photographic evidence isn't what it used to be.
We should invent a new word for a photo used as a seed for LLM based art.
Removing a water bottle is closer to a photo on this gradient, replacing the desk with a glass table is more on the art side.
Maybe a word like phender, or phart?

Cool so hold back their model... while the rest of the world releases a new model every 24 hours lol, cats out of the bag
> Apple is 'concerned' about AI turning real photos into 'fantasy'
I heard that their camera does the same.
