Topaz processing- Is Topaz the image creator or is Pentax, or am I?

[21limited]

A nagging question, since various Pentax sites facebook etc. started refusing my submissions, due to Topaz over writing the “content creator” section over writing the camera model.

So our Orchids are blooming. A sure sign the native Orchids will soon be blooming in the bush, it happens once a year.

The first is processed with Apple Photos.

While I like the Topaz version , there is something going on. When flipping back and forth between images there is a distinct change. If you look at the strange stgiht lines of the window to the right, for some reason Topaz distorts them. That carries on into the image, where you can flipping back and forth see the flowers change size.

It leads to the question, is this still a Pentax camera image, or is it now an AI image, based on Pentax raw data?
I’m not sure it matters, but, something to think about.

I’ve never seen any product attributed to the tools used to create them before. My book cases are not “table saw, sander” book cases. Nor is their "content creator" “Rockwell.” However the content for my images and Credit are attributed to Apple Photo Clean-up. If Topaz had been the last used, Topaz would have been listed as the content creator. Is this common? Anyone?

K-1 is listed accurately as the content creator coming off the camera, over written, by Topaz, then by Apple photos. It just feels wrong. As far as I'm concerned I’d like a Pentax credit.,for entry into Pentax specific sites, but, these corporations obviously think differently. I may have to invest into some exif editiing software.
