Simon Thorpe x The Story Lens

The tricky part, commercially, with AI is all in licensing. I think, fortunately, at the moment, whilst it's difficult to license or litigate, it's important to get that bit right for clients; then we can still work with it rather than it doing our jobs. I think when we get to a point, if we get to a point where it can all be licensed, or clients don't care and they'll just use it anyway, that's probably the point where we all need to worry a little more about.  Simon Thorpe and Haydon Perrior get into creativity, authorship, AI, rejection, collaboration, and why the work that matters most is often the work nobody sees.

Tim Flach x The Story Lens

"I've noticed many more people saying, "Tim, is that real?" I didn't get that when I photographed it, say 10 years earlier. Because it wasn't even a consideration. So we've got a situation where the real is being doubted. It's not just the synthetic. And that, as a consequence." Tim Flach talking about animals, authenticity, storytelling and empathy with Haydon Perrior.

David Vintiner x The Story Lens

"... Sunday Times or the Guardian.. I don't think they can go anywhere near AI because once they start to, if they ever get caught using an image that is fake, that's their whole business model is blown wide open… the trust will disappear, won't it?"

Chris Day x The Story Lens

"I think we’re all still learning with AI, but I feel positive about it. Some brands are experimenting with it, then coming back to more authentic, human-made content. Real photography still has something tangible and genuine that AI can’t replicate." New episode with Chris Day from Kintzing Licensing and Haydon Perrior.

Rory Langdon-Down x The Story Lens

“There will be a point at which you'll look at two photos, a photo which you or I have taken and a photo which has been created on AI, that on looking at can generate an emotional reaction but the backstory of one will be rich and there'll be more to talk about, we'll be able to chat about it for long time and understand more and I think that's what matters, the other one will just remain a picture.” Rory Langdon-Down https://rorylangdondown.co.uk/ [https://rorylangdondown.co.uk/] Haydon Perrior https://www.haydonperrior.com/ [https://www.haydonperrior.com/] The Story Lens https://thestorylens.co.uk/ [https://thestorylens.co.uk/]
