As generative AI has taken the tech world by storm, it was only a matter of time before Photoshop got in on the action. Adobe announced today that a new Generative Fill feature is coming to its ubiquitous photo-editing software later this year. The company promises \u201ca magical new way to work\u201d as the Firefly-powered feature lets you add, remove and extend visual content based on natural-language text prompts. \u201cGenerative Fill combines the speed and ease of generative AI with the power and precision of Photoshop, empowering customers to bring their visions to life at the speed of their imaginations,\u201d said Ashley Still, Adobe\u2019s senior VP of Digital Media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adobe\u2019s Generative Fill is equivalent to DALL-E 2\u2019s inpainting (generating AI content within a section of an image) and outpainting (AI-generated content extending beyond the image\u2019s borders). So, for example, if you want to inpaint the sky to look surreal in a photo you took, select that area and type something like \u201csurreal sky with strange colors\u201d into the prompt field. Or, if you took a picture that you wish had a wider aspect ratio, you can select the area outside of it and prompt it to extend the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adobe says the feature matches the original scene\u2019s perspective, lighting and style, allowing you to alter images radically with minimal legwork. The company provided a marketing video showing three AI-generated results to choose from for each text prompt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To try to help separate its AI work from the pack on an ethical level, the company says its current-generation model only learns from Adobe Stock images and \u201cother public domain content without copyright restrictions.\u201d In addition, as part of Adobe\u2019s Content Credentials initiative, AI images made in Photoshop will be encoded with an invisible digital signature indicating whether it\u2019s human-made or the product of AI. As generative AI makes it increasingly difficult to separate the organic from the algorithmic \u2014 and as artists worry about their work being plagiarized by career-killing machines \u2014 Adobe\u2019s more transparent approach is refreshing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generative Fill will be available in the Photoshop desktop beta starting today. Adobe adds that the feature will be \u201cgenerally available in the second half of 2023.\u201d Finally, Generative Fill is also available today on the web as a module in the Firefly beta<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
