Thanks for another great video and keeping us informed of all the changes and new PS features. It's nice you don't waste time on flashy introductions and telling us how great you are, because we already know that. You stick to the point, give a lot of info without the fluff that we don't need. Or want actually.

I was doing some portrait editing today and I had shot a bit tight on one of the subjects ( of course the best shot). I used the generative expand on the right side of the portrait which include the subjects hair and it is an amazing job! I was able to then do a proper crop. Many thanks for your concise useful info!!

Thank you for the great video. There are some great new tools. But I am a bit confused about the addition of weapons, armor, or other things in the scene. I wonder where these elements (images) come from and if I can use them for commercial purposes in my work if I use this option.

Thank you so much, Colin. You have the most helpful videos of anyone else I have seen.

Hi Colin, very good tutorial and very helpful. In the early days of the beta version generated fill always worked very well but since it is in the official Photoshop version I often have problems. Especially with changing the background. I select the subject, invert and write what should be generated. The background is changed but so is my motif. Faces are distorted or half of a hand is missing. I never had these problems in the first beta version. Do you know what could be the reason for this? Thank you very much

Hi very interesting thanks. A question your thumbnail of the lady guitarist - first examples, goes from the original photo to your generative fills, the thumbnail however ends with he in tshirt, shorts etc how to you replace the trousers with the shorts?

Good day Colin. Love all your tutorial videos. Seen lots of them & learned lots. I have a question that doesn't have to do with this video and wonder if you can give me a reply. I have Lightroom & Photoshop. I bought a new HP all in one computer. Approx. 6 months ago and since Photoshop Beta, I've been having computer issues when both programs are open. It is very very slow and then freezes. I did contact Adobe and issue not resolve. What type of computer are you using Mac & Windows?

Colin …what are your thoughts please . To generative expand first downsize the entire image to 1024 …generative expand …then upscale entire image to a higher resolution . Perhaps a viable alternative to several 1024 ‘boxes ‘ Personally 99.9pct of the time I use generative for getting rid of things . Works well in the vast majority of instances

I purchased your video tutorial on Generative Fill Photoshop. In the segment with you on the bridge and subject selection, masking...you mention select radius for seeing edge, and in my version of Photoshop 2024, I cannot find the "radius" when I go to see edge? I'm not using the beta version but 2024. How do I manage that edge? I love the tutorial so far, but a little disappointed that the tutorial seems to be made with beta version and not latest version. Will you have a tutorial available with the 2024 version? Thanks

@photoshopcafe

Hi there. There are no changes with the final release and beta, there's nothing to change they are the same. Radius is in Select and Mask - under Edge Detection (a little disclosure arrow is there, easy to miss). Also make sure the top tool on the left is selected (it is by default). If you have any other issues, please contact me at photoshopcafe.zendesk.com/home where it's easier for me to provide more timely and detailed support.

I watch all your videos Colin, because you offer such great advice and demo interesting things, BUT, and this BUT isn't really aimed at you but everybody putting up videos on Generative Fill, or Expand,. Whats the point because its all so low resolution to be useless if you were thinking of printing anything, this new technology is only really useful for playing around for a laugh or for putting things up on social media where quality isn't an issue. If Adobe ever manage to get the resolution right I`d be interested, but then you'd probably only get one credit a month! LOL

Great tips. The one issue I have consistently found with AI generated content is that it seems incapable of accurately depicting human hands. If you look at the tip where you ask for it generate a glove, you'll note that she has 6 digits in every version. My assumption is that when programming AI, it has confused concepts like "humans have 5 fingers" and "humans have opposable thumbs" and come up with "humans have 5 fingers and 1 thumb." I've yet to see an AI engine create an accurate model.

Not at all existed about the direction Adobe is going. Sure, innovation is inevitable, but they’re essentially optimizing their product to the average Joe. Cutting out the professionals that have supported their product for decades is no way to run a business. They fully realize our talent out performs their AI 10/10 but as long as their subscription is cheaper than us, they know the masses with fold.

Yes maybe the average Joes who dont mind spending 20 bucks in the month (without noticing it is 240 bucks in a year 1200 in 5 years, etc...for a single product) for the AI, what will make some uncreative, ugly and weird graphics with few clicks. Good job Adobe and co. for killing the graphics design industry.

Lets be honest, it's just a toy isn't it ? Any professional trying to produce work to a tight schedule is going to be disappointed. There are 5 problems with generative fill. The first is the algorithm. For example you ask for 'an old fashioned car' - and you get old car wrecks'. So you have to waste time trying to second guess the bot's understanding of what you type. Secondly it's slow - so multiple regenerate to get a better image is very time consuming. Thirdly the generated bit has a fringe of the background around it so it blends in. This means you can't resize or reposition it because the fringe won't match. Fourthly the censorship (aka Community Standards) are child-like. I tried 'swimwear' the other day and got refused. It's just not reliable enough to use every time - so trying something to see if it works - only to get the orange box after it has thought about it for a bit - is just another waste of time. Finally the floating panel for the generative fill is a gimmick. The last thing we need is more clutter. Much better to right click on the selection and choose from the menu.

@ianperryman1078

10 ай бұрын

I agree. It seems to totally ignore the concept of artistic composition where you move things around and change size and perspective. And, as you say, the Community Standards are frustrating. I tried putting some cars outside a house today. Apparently you can't have "Rolls Royce" or "BMW"; but you can have a "Jeep" . Thinking it might be something to do with brand names I tried "Dyson vacuum cleaner" and got something that look like R2D2 with a handle on the top. ???????

Nothing like creating some half baked AI photography. Editing is cool until you let AI do your job. Personal opinion this is for lazy photographers and photo editors.

My tip: Do not even try to expand images when women are present on the image, 99% chance to get blocked, even if you own full copyright and there is zero nudity involved. I'm not sure how you were even able to add the shirt to your model without getting blocked.

@ianperryman1078

10 ай бұрын

Could it be that it's calculating the amount of bare skin that it sees ? So non-nude woman wearing a bikini ( for example ) triggers Prude Mode based on mathematical percentages. You might get it to work by selecting a rectangle at the edge of your image and copying it onto a new layer. Turn off other layers beneath then expand the copy.

Instead of leaving the "What would you like to generate?" box empty, if you get blocked, try putting a single . (period) in the box instead. It kept telling me I was violating their terms because I was trying to expand a red awning on a dark brown house, but flew right past it when I added the . to the "What would you like to generate?" box.
