    A photo has less bias because we know what it is representing: a photo only shows what can be seen.

    i agree with you on ai but the above statement is ignoring what photography is and biases intrinsic to it.

    You see, that understanding you expect to be developed for ai is not there for you for photography.

      If you want, any work that does not encompass the whole world is applying a filter and therefore a bias of some sort. We don’t expect a photo to X-ray the roots of a tree, because we understand the physical constraints of photography. Sure, something could be just out of frame, something else could have been photoshopped out, you can create a different story by selecting different photos and so on. But we understand the “what” a photo represents. I doubt we have the dang understanding of “what” an LLM represents, what are the constraints of the possible answers, and we definitely don’t understand why a specific answer is chosen over the infinite other possibilities.
