    They all use algorithms – that’s what software is – but equating what’s been done for decades in software with AI is disingenuous. By this definition of AI, that was baked into Quark 3.3 and Photoshop 5 (not CS5, just 5).

      What used to be done for decades, is being turned up to 100,000%. Instead of clever algorithms written directly by people, black-box AI algorithms and generative AI are being used to modify content so it fits better to the expectations of the old algorithms.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if new compression algorithms came out in the next years, openly taking advantage of generative AI to recreate the “original image”… “original intent/concept?”
