Photograph: Julian ChokkattuHowever, Camera Coach—which launches in a preview (sort of like a beta)—has a Get Inspired button that uses generative AI to deliver some photos it thinks you might like to try and mimic.

A staggering 95% of generative AI pilots at companies are failing, according to a recent report published by MIT’s NANDA initiative.
