You say “Photoshop” as a generic term for “image editor”, even when there’s no reason to think it was that editor in particular.
Maybe “AI” is just replacing “Photoshop” as a generic term for any digital image manipulation.
"my face was altered by a man using GIMP!"

Anyone's face can be altered if you use GIMP somewhere unexpected

Maybe not 100% Photoshop usage, but 99.9% Adobe product based on what I see in every industry
Air brushing, Photoshop, and AI are specific methodologies, you can't just use that as a generic term when that will just create more confusion and hide the meaning, especially when the difference is important due to legislation.
I never put out an article saying it was one of them definitively. I just said the style looked similar to another method.
"AI" is not a term for photo editing at all, much less a generic term for it. Using totally wrong words to refer to things doesn't make you innovative, it makes you a crackpot or a liar.
This is seriously the dumbest take I've seen all week and I can't believe how many people upvoted it.
