Its way off from being perfect , thats for sure. I've selected subjects, then the inverse to change the background and after a new background generates, I can clearly see the edges , ears etc have been pulled into the background, now wearing spock ears etc and other weird phenomonen, so the select subject doesn't properly work, so that needs to be fixed.

I don't even know what to think about all of this to be honest! It's truly mind blowing and no doubt the biggest change to our industry since the switch to digital from film. It has huge potential for all creatives and certainly changes the game!

I couldn't agree more, I don't think we can underestimate how big this is. Especially when you consider that this is just the beginning. Crazy times!

Flashback to a wedding in 2021 when I had to remove the two videographers from in between the B&G in most of the ceremony photos because they would not move…. This tool could’ve saved me HOURS!!! I might have to go back to those images just to try this tool and see how well it does compared to my painstakingly long photoshop work! Thanks sharing, Neil!

Mind blown... it's a game changer for all creative industries and much bigger for photographers than the move from analogue to digital. People will still want authentic, real moments BUT the hero shots, the OCF portraits etc... you can create most on PS after the wedding has finished. Great video - thanks.

Thank you for all of the examples. It's true, this opens the gate to a new genre.

It's a game changer, but it questions all we do as photographers. Downloading now to give it a try. Thanks again Neil!

For a mixed media project I made a series of images using my photography in AI model's Outpainting. Each image took me 3 days to create, with little sleep. It was a lot of fun, but still epic amounts of work. Not as much as making all the assets of images to create a composite, but still. To get the image to A3 I had to make it in selections and piece it together in PS. I have been waiting to complete my degree to play with that art style again. I'm delighted that Adobe have added this feature. It looks vastly more easier than the way I had to create my mixed media project. Plus love LOVE that they work with layers. To fix those faces is easy too, just delete that section of the AI generated layer to see the original image. It doesn't bother me that there are some glitches because overall workflow is now vastly faster.

Wowza!! Great example video mate! The potential of this is insane, and like you rightly said, this is just the very beginning of this new journey...

Thank you very much mate!

I missed the stream but from that first image my mouth was on the floor. That is insane!

I first dove into photography back in 1974 when I was 12 years old. My first camera was my father's Agfa rangefinder camera. I then graduated big-time when my father graciously bought me a brand new Nikon F2A in 1978. Everything about those film cameras was manual, including the exposure and the focus. I considered myself a "photographer" or "picture taker" back then. I then got into doing b/w darkroom work, which made me question whether I was still a "picture taker" or a "picture maker". But...Ansel Adams' photos incorporated a lot of darkroom work, so I didn't feel so bad when I thought that way. I then went digital and started using Photoshop in the '90s. Today, I'm doing even more amazing things with Photoshop and have considered myself a "picture maker" since I became fairly good at using Photoshop. But this Generative Fill just takes photography to a level beyond our wildest imaginations, as you so rightly pointed-out. And you're also right by saying we can never trust another picture we see from this point forward! I shudder to think about photos that will start cropping-up in the already heated political arena! Thanks for creating this video. It was quite eye-opening to say the least!

I have been using it to repair old ripped photos. I took a photo that I had tried to fix last year and spent four hours on reconstructing part of a face. The generative ai did it with one pass. I just used the lasso tool and selected the ripped area and done. I simple couldn't believe it.

you see me speechles, fascinated and... just speechless! First question which come sinto my mind: How will the competitions be able to control, which photo was heavily manipulated and which not? this is so crazy

Everybody in here is cheering today. Tomorrow, everybody in here is out of a job, or into a version of his/her job that no longer contains almost ANY type of work/activity that you actually enjoyed with Photoshop.

I was asked to update fashion photos from a company in Germany. One was adding a skateboard into the hand of a girl and I just selected the area the skateboard should have been and used the prompt: girl holding a skateboard with yellow wheels facing toward her body. Done just like that. I used to try and use MidJourney and create a detailed prompt that would do the same but it never worked.

Here is my plan....go back to pure black and white portraits with very minimal retouch and the other half of the work do the crazy ai thing,,,we need to redefine ourselves...iphones didnt totally cancel us out...this is one more crazy obstacle...good luck to my fellow photographers! Keep shooting no matter what!

Absolutely incredible tech for sure. What’s scarier is the waterfall photo of me and my wife, one of the versions the AI generated was literally how it looked in person. Nuts! I’m disappointed that Beth didn’t swim with a shark though 🤣

I love that!! It's really nice to hear a really positive outcome of this - that's lovely :)

It could affect people in commercial photography, but it will never replace the real photography, for example; wedding shoots, pet photography or anything of that nature. The reason being is because the biggest part of photography people are forgetting is to do with painting the character by capturing actual real moments. Sure, you could tell this technology to take the dog and give it this specific characteristic, but it's still fake. A real photograph is capturing something genuine, an actual moment that people can look back on and that cannot be replicated by A.I.

@mpetrie

Жыл бұрын

I would certainly use this to make adjustments to "problem areas" in a photo that I want to fix. How is that any different than us going in with our clone stamp tools, healing brushes, etc? I would never use it to completely artificially make an image or have the faked item be used as the centerpiece of the image. I also would never use it for putting people in areas where they really weren't. For example, I wouldn't take a photo of someone near a waterfall and then use it to create a completely faked environment to make the image bigger. It's something I would merely use as a "touch up" tool on my photos.

​@@mpetrie, yes, as someone who is a pet photographer, to me this is ideal for certain things like removing objects, it's more powerful. I think problem areas like you've mentioned would be interesting to see the results of for what it will achieve. I tested it yesterday, it seems it is still a bit buggy where you can see the seems from where it's added on, but it's early days and given the fact it's able to generate results like that is crazy. Yeah, I agree with you, it isn't, it's something that will speed up your workflow. I do think, however, when people make it out like it'll replace the photographer, that just isn't going to happen. I mean, take a wedding photographer as a prime example, they're out there capturing moments as they happen, and it's really those 'moments' people look back on and feel fond of, whereas, A.I. isn't about generating memories, it simply cannot achieve that. I'll tell you what would be good if they adapted it, if you were creating your own surreal photograph and shot all of your own material to put that together where it would be able to assist you putting it together, but at the current time I don't think it enables you to do so, instead, it merely generates things for you. For someone doing still life, if they forget to clear up some clutter, it can be useful for removing certain things like that. It's like you stated though, problem areas. Oh and as for the fake environment, correct, people who have visited the location many times would see it's fake for that reason. So it wouldn't work out in landscape in the same manner, plus it just doesn't feel right.

I have tried this and for me this is artificial because the area you selecting prior to apply generative fill completely replaced by the cloud database and I have tried to apply GF to remove one person overlapping another in a photo and expected AI will generate overlapped bodyparts by observing rest of the visible body part but it is doing very poor job at this moment perhaps with time AI will improve but still that also will be synthetic....so with gradual improvement of AI we will lose the most precious originality and will miss manual work

Laughed out loud when photoshop replaced the foreground person with a random person... This tech genuinely worries me. Already, I get unreasonable photoshop requests that I basically refuse to do on the basis that im a documentary photographer and that it wouldnt be possible anyway (because i didnt know what was behind the object) - but as soon as clients get wind of this tech, I think that expectations/requests will skyrocket. There is no denying that when I need to use this feature it will be invaluable though...
