It begs the question of why we don't apply the same scrutiny to astronomers and cosmologists, who use the same technique on a much larger scale. It's not like anyone "took a picture of a Black Hole," and yet there were hundreds of newspaper headlines suggesting that's exactly what happened. Virtually every "photo" produced of "space" is created through an "imaging" process, which in recent years frequently involves fairly intense processing steps using ML algorithms that are subject to errors and biases which could substantially alter the end result. But the scientific community, and especially the media, largely takes these "images" at face value, despite them having little basis in any "actual" snapshot of reality. I don't really see how what Samsung is doing is any different.
