Back in the days when visual media was FILM the photographer might of only been able to change color/contrast/focus to help 'highlight' and lead the viewers eyes to elements in the image they wanted to attract the viewer to.
Then in the 'digital age' ALL elements in an image could be added/removed on the whims of the 'artist'. Strict rules for 'contests' were created that define how much (if any) 'enhancement' you could do.
Now with the help of AI the parties can add/remove (at will) whatever they wish to push the agenda they want.
