Question for BD

Ben, you probably know this:

Has there been any software developed that would neutralize the effects of photo filtering (when online or, if necessary, after download) in order to restore, completely, or at least replicate originality.

This, obviously, would assist in our efforts of "procurement".

And, would developers welcome this innovation?

ya thinks grampy d the ...master of the wrinkled bedsheet background ...coulds ever hopes ta answer such a ...question?

...lets yer all knowin ...plastic man ...saves ya some time

...the ...answer be no

...at leasts nots fer the jimmie ...public

BD would know better than I, my friend. But unfortunately, I think that PM is right. Ain't no such thing. Unless you have access to the original file, you can't go backwards. But I don't know everything, just like to act like I do. Maybe one a them Scavullo's out there will set us straight.

.

Thanks Guys

In a word no, Roo is right, without the original file there is no data to restore. Everytime an image is edited be it filters or an editing program the image retains the new data. AI is getting better and more user friendly and with it an image can be changed beyond recognition. It's getting so good you can start with nothing and make images that can't be detected as fakes. Photography as we know it will be gone in a few years.

Today we're buying a camera that includes a phone!
