This is why I subscribe to Adobe. Look at these enhancements to Photoshop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tG7dsM0hllA I am sure this will be just one of the many announcements from all over the Internet. Enjoy.

You link is to a video about the public release of the 'beta' version 24.6. The primary release is 24.5.

From Adobe, "Quickly create, add to, remove, or replace images right in Adobe Photoshop with simple text prompts powered by Adobe Firefly generative AI."

This will be fun to try. I've done some light dabbling with Firefly and it is a mind bender all by itself.

I have now played around with it. First of all, you must install the latest version of PS before installing the beta version with the generative fill tool. The results are unbelievable. Seeing is believing. The only bad thing is that I asked it to make a younger version of myself. It failed miserably but the rest of the suggested results were awesome.

Go and enjoy. Worth every cent of the subscription.

This looks pretty amazing to me. There was another post today on the Hog, which seemed to be centered more on the negatives about this new Ai technology, about people using it to composite and generate fake photos.

People have been doing that for years with PS pretty much since it came out. What has changed in that regard? Not much if you ask me, except that this new tech sure is make it quicker and easier to do the same things PS has been used for in the past. Using the lasso tool and content aware to remove and replace distracting objects in a photo is something that has been done for quite some time. This new Ai just makes it faster and easier to do, thusly shortening our post processing time.

There is always going to be resistance to new tech, new ways of doing things because many do not like change. Change is inevitable. Don't worry about how others misuse this new tech. If it makes your post processing workflow better and faster, go for it I say.

I agree with you completely. If someone wants to lie about a picture, he will. All things considered, it is a great tool and I hope people do not abuse it.

I took a picture of myself and added the Eiffel Tower as a background. I took another picture and added Jerusalem behind me. It even fixed the top button on my shirt. I added blank space to the picture and the tool added the rest of the background. The results were great. I was at both places, just not when my picture was taken.

I use Portrait Pro for that 😉
