> If people wanted cameras to actually take what it sees, then we wouldn't have autofocus, Bad example. Autofocus makes changes to the light that goes into the camera, not just the data that comes out. > photoshop or instagram filters Bad examples. Those both give the user a before-and-after comparison so the user can decide what kind of alterations are reasonable or desirable. |

Arguably so do the AI things (i.e. they take multiple shots at different exposure and composit them).
The point is, we have ceeded manual control of photography to automated systems a long time ago. Most people are happy with that choice, as phone cameras serve a cultural function and are not scientific instruments.
