Adobe updates Photoshop across platforms with new AI tools: What's new
Adobe has rolled out a new set of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered features across Photoshop on desktop, web, and mobile. The latest update introduces tools such as Harmonize, generative upscale, and improved object removal capabilities through its remove tool. According to Adobe, all these features are built to streamline tasks like background clean-up, image enhancement, and seamless compositing. These features are focused on removing manual effort and accelerating workflows. Availability These features are rolling out now in the Photoshop beta for desktop and web, and the latest mobile version is available on iOS. Adobe Photoshop AI features: What is new Harmonize The new Harmonize feature blends the added objects into a scene by automatically matching lighting, colours, visual tone and shadows. This helps users create more realistic and seamless images with fewer manual adjustments. Harmonize is powered by Adobe Firefly Image Model. It is available in beta across Photoshop on desktop and web, and in early Access on mobile (iOS). Generative upscale Another addition is generative upscale, which lets users increase image resolution up to 8 megapixels without losing clarity. As per Adobe, this feature is helpful for improving older photos, prepping images for print, or adjusting visuals for different social media formats. This feature is also available in beta. Improved remove tool Photoshop's remove tool has also been upgraded using Adobe's Firefly AI model. It can clean images with more precision and quality than ever before. It can erase background clutter or fix product shots. Adobe said the improved remove tool not only eliminates unwanted elements but also generates realistic content that fills the gaps with better quality and accuracy. Projects A new feature called Projects (beta) lets users better organise and share their work. It gathers assets into one space so collaborators can access and work on them together. This removes the need to constantly send files back and forth. Whether a user is working on client campaigns or building mood boards, Projects helps keep their workflow streamlined and everything in one place. Gen AI Model picker For flexibility, Photoshop now offers a Gen AI Model Picker for its Generative Fill and Expand tools. Users can choose between different Firefly image models (Firefly Image 1 and Firefly Image 3) to get the style and output that fits their creative needs while using Photoshop's Generative Fill and Generative Expand tools.

Adobe releases its first commercially safe Firefly video generating AI
Following on the success of its IP-friendly Firefly Image model, Adobe announced on Wednesday the beta release of a new Firefly Video model, as well as two subscription packages with which to access its audio and video generating abilities. Generate Video, according to the announcement post, 'empowers creative professionals with tools to generate video clips from a text prompt or image, use camera angles to control shots, create professional quality images from 3D sketches, craft atmospheric elements and develop custom motion design elements.' The model will initially be able to generate video in 1080p resolution to start, though the company plans to release a 4k model for professional production work in the near future. Like the image generator, Firefly Video is trained exclusively on Adobe stock, licensed, and public domain content, making its outputs usable in commercial applications without fear of them running afoul of copyright or intellectual property protections. And, unlike Grok 2, there's minimal chance of it outputting racist, offensive, or illegal content. Firefly Video will be accessible both through Adobe Premiere Pro (as the Generative Extend tool) and through a new web application , Users will be able to generate video clips from both text prompts and reference images, as well as add atmospheric effects and custom motion design elements. They'll even be able to lock in the first and last frames of a clip, 'to preserve visual continuity, keep colors and character details consistent.' The new Scene to Image feature allows users to 'seamlessly render production-ready assets' using a 3D sketching tool, converting a creator's concept art into high resolution images and structure references that can then be used to iterate a generated video clip. Firefly Video can also generate audio to translate spoken dialog into any of 20 languages. Adobe is rolling out a pair of subscription plans alongside Firefly Video, either of which will grant you full access to the new model. The $10 per month Firefly Standard plan offers 2,000 video/audio credits per month worth as many as 20 5-second video generations at 1080p. The $30 per month Firefly Pro plan, on the other hand, provides 7,000 video/audio credits per month which will get you up to 70 5-second clips at 1080p. Adobe also revealed that a 'Firefly Premium' plan is in the works, geared towards professionals looking to generate high volumes of video and audio, though there's no word yet on what it might cost or when it will be released. Adobe first teased the Firefly video model in April of last year before providing a preview of its capabilities in September. It enters an increasingly crowded market with competition from both premium and free-to use models alike, such as Kling AI, Meta's Movie Gen, and OpenAI's Sora.
