entry description
These AI-generated images are trained by Generative Adversarial Networks. The original documentary photographs I took for the training that I spent nearly a decade to finish. I selected more than 1000 photographs from over 3000 as the dataset for AI. The conceived images from AI integrated all the essences and subtle emotions from the original documentary photographs, such as the compositions, lights in photographs, and the view and the lens I chose. That's the most exciting part for me on this project, but at the same time, I raising a question: Who's the authentic author of these AI images? Me or AI, or We.about the photographer
