Photography has come a long way since its invention in the 1820s. From the first daguerreotypes to modern digital cameras, the evolution of photography technology has been remarkable. Today, AI is adding another chapter to this history.
The Early Days
The first permanent photograph was created by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce in 1826. Early photography required long exposure times and produced only black and white images. Color photography didn't become widely available until the 1930s with Kodak's Kodachrome film.
The Digital Revolution
The transition from film to digital photography changed everything. Suddenly, photos could be stored, edited, and shared in ways that were previously impossible. This digital foundation made AI-powered restoration possible.
AI and the Future
Modern AI technology represents the next evolution in photography. We can now restore and enhance images in ways that would have seemed like science fiction just a decade ago. As AI continues to improve, the possibilities for photo restoration will only expand.
