    I know several companies which have stopped paying for stock photos and using AI laundered images or using AI to remove watermarks without any skills in image editing softwares.

    Is it replacing jobs? I don’t know the economics of this field well enough to know what cut the photographer gets, but I know that there’s less cash flowing into this sector due to genAI

      You can tell when a stock photo is ai, it looks creepy and weird and people hate it. They didn’t replace workers, they downgraded their product.
