Abstract

This paper explores the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) and its impact on the realm of photography, particularly within NBCUniversal's photo department. Amid concerns about job security and creativity, AI, if wielded thoughtfully, stands as a beneficial tool. Focusing on the intersection of AI and art, it scrutinizes how machine learning influences various roles within the department. Additionally, it delves into the realm of generative AI, outlining its limitations and proposing a safe integration strategy. Through examining NBCUniversal's photo department, this study navigates the potential of AI in photography while advocating for a balanced approach that preserves human creativity and expertise.
