New updates released: Adobe Generative AI for Photoshop plus a new version of Excire Foto 2024


Adobe updated Photoshop with the newest generative AI tools:

  • Latest Adobe Firefly Image Model​: The new Adobe Firefly Image Model yields better people generation, photographic quality, colors, and dynamic range. It's also better at understanding and following your prompts and supports negative prompts, so you can bring your vision to life in Photoshop with more control and confidence in the results.​
  • Text to Image (Generate Image in UI)​: Generate entire images or scenes from scratch using text prompts and additional creative controls with the new Text to Image (labeled “Generate Image” in Ps product UI) feature. You can generate complex, custom images and composites without leaving Photoshop, or combine multiple generated images on a canvas to ideate and refine ideas more efficiently​
  • Generate Background​: Generate Background allows you to replace your background with generated content that matches the lighting, shadows, and perspective of the subject in just a few steps. Rather than manually selecting the background and using Generative Fill, with Generate Background, you can simplify workflows and save time with a streamlined experience in the Contextual Task Bar.
