The question is whether would you make a difference between a photograph of your kid, and a photograph of someone who looks exactly like your kid (and that you know is not your kid).

> and that you know is not your kid

I don't expect any reasonable answer to this, but...

There are two sets of photos, both exactly alike, yet one of those sets was created by capturing photons while the other was created by computers. Both were created by pointing a machine at your kid during a trip, and subsequently giving you a digital image. How to you tell those apart?

How do you know it's your kid on your kid's photos anyway?

One set of photos is possible… the other is the fever dream of a Verge editor.

Is it really? A sensorless camera is pushing it, but the amount of processing current cameras do to your photos is staggering.

Getting to the Andromeda Galaxy is pushing it, but the number of satellites we have launched is staggering.
