Sony tries to explain that its AI Camera Assistant doesn’t suck

索尼试图解释其 AI 相机助手并不糟糕

After Sony drew some unwanted attention for a post demonstrating its AI Camera Assistant on the Xperia 1 XIII, it’s trying to clarify how the feature works. The company says it doesn’t edit photos, but makes suggestions based on lighting, depth, and subject. Point the camera at something, and it will give you four options for changing exposure, color, and background blur. 在索尼发布了一篇展示其 Xperia 1 XIII 上 AI 相机助手的文章并引发了一些负面关注后，该公司正试图澄清该功能的工作原理。索尼表示，它不会直接编辑照片，而是根据光线、景深和拍摄主体提供建议。当你将相机对准物体时，它会为你提供四个选项，用于调整曝光、色彩和背景虚化。

In its product video, Sony says that the AI Camera Assistant will also suggest “the most photogenic angle.” Though the clip only shows it suggesting that someone zoom in, which is not the same as suggesting a camera angle. 在其产品视频中，索尼称 AI 相机助手还会建议“最上镜的角度”。尽管视频片段中仅显示它建议用户进行变焦，但这与建议拍摄角度并不是一回事。

The examples that Sony posted on X, while better than those it posted on May 14th, are still pretty terrible. They’re not as washed out as the sandwich or as over-exposed as the portrait in the meadow. But each suggestion in the grid below has serious issues and looks worse than the original. Suggestion one is way too saturated, two is flat and over-processed, three makes it look like the food is Photoshopped into the frame, and the contrast in four is cranked way too high. 索尼在 X（原 Twitter）上发布的示例虽然比 5 月 14 日发布的那些要好，但依然相当糟糕。它们虽然不像那张三明治照片那样色彩惨淡，也不像草地人像那样过度曝光，但下方网格中的每一项建议都存在严重问题，看起来比原图更差。第一个建议饱和度过高，第二个显得平淡且处理过度，第三个让食物看起来像是后期抠图合成进去的，而第四个的对比度则调得太高了。

If you’re using an Xperia 1 XIII, your best bet is probably to ignore the AI Camera Assistant’s suggestions for now. 如果你正在使用 Xperia 1 XIII，目前最好的做法或许是直接忽略 AI 相机助手的这些建议。
