"Obviously" has been a conclusive reason to condemn things since social media began. So of course "obviously AI" falls under that impeccable standard.
Also just curious, is taking photos with an iPhone something people apologize for now? I don't keep up with all the latest acceptibility rules.
I took it as them sharing the hardware specs for other curious photographers, but you might be on to something.
Sharing hardware specs doesn't need "because it was all I had" tho.
It answers the question of why they wouldnt use a professional camera instead.
