IMPROVED MODEL:

Firefly IMAGE 1 and IMAGE 2 (BETA)

Image 2(beta) is the natural evolution of Image 1, and comes to us with better image generation capabilities.

What does it mean for you?
✓ Less iterations are required to get the desired result.
✓ Improved quality of images, vector graphics, illustrations, and stylization.
✓ Advanced control over content and depth of field.
✓ Enhanced human rendering.

This IMAGE model includes a variety of ways in which the Generative AI technology is implemented in the workflow.
They are: Text to image (Firefly & Express), Text Effects (Firefly & Express), Generative Fill (Firefly, Ps), Generative Expand (Ps), Generative Recolor (Firefly, Ai), and more to come!

Text to image has now introduced customized options to help you tailor your creation, they are:

- Generative Match, to help you experiment with style;
- Photo setting, to customize photo aperture, shutter speed, and field of view;
- Prompt suggestion (at the moment only in English);
- Negative prompting, to help you exclude content.

Firefly-powered features inside Photoshop

Generative Fill

Add, or remove content from your images non-destructively using simple text prompts in over 100 languages. Use this feature to automatically match the perspective, lighting, and style of your image, make previously tedious tasks fun, and achieve realistic results that will surprise, delight, and astound you in seconds

Generative Expand

Expand and resize any image to different sizes and aspect ratios with generative content!
Generative Expand is part of the Crop workflow inside Photoshop. When you access the Crop tool the contextual toolbar will automatically feature the Generative Expand button as the suggested next step. Generative Expand is a great timesaver that will allow you to reduce the number of steps needed to fill the empty space by using unprompted or prompted newly generated content that naturally blends with the existing image.
