Adobe has introduced a new artificial intelligence capability that maximizes creativity and accuracy across Creative Cloud and Adobe Express.

"Our people-centric approach to building AI that enables creativity is about infusing intelligence into the products creatives know and love so they can dream big and bring bold ideas to life," says Ely Greenfield, Chief Technology Officer, Digital Media, Adobe.

"New AI-powered features in Adobe Express and Creative Cloud enable anyone to tap into their creativity, spending more time creating and less time on basic, repetitive tasks."

Adobe's latest innovation will increase the use of AI in popular Creative Cloud applications. Photo Restoration is Photoshop's new neural filter that saves time on complex tasks and uses machine learning to remove scratches and other minor imperfections in old photos.

Choose People, a new Adobe Lightroom tool that automatically recognizes a person in a photo and then creates masks specific to their facial skin, body skin, eyebrows, sclera, iris/pupil, lips, teeth, mouth, and hair.

New AI features in Adobe Express enable quick actions for users to instantly resize videos and images for quick social sharing, find ideal color palettes for maximum visual impact, and quickly create over 22,000 Adobe Fonts for the perfect font.

Other AI innovations within Creative Cloud and Adobe Express include:

Adobe Photoshop

Selection enhancements allow users to hover over, detect, and make detailed selections of complex objects with a single click, creating better and more accurate selections of elements such as sky, foreground, objects, and hair—all while maintaining detailed edges.

One-click Delete and Fill selects and deletes objects from images and fills the deleted area with a content-aware fill in a single action.

iPad Remove Background saves time by isolating the main objects from the background. Users can select the most prominent subject in an image with a single click – people, animals, vehicles, toys and more – and then effortlessly remove the background.

 

 

Adobe Express

Remove Background saves time by using artificial intelligence to recognize and highlight the key subject of the photo, so you can place a new image over the background and choose from a variety of patterns and targets.

Featured Templates, one of the most popular features, allows anyone to quickly start creating social media content, logos, and other projects with thousands of professionally designed templates. Adobe's context-aware artificial intelligence takes the content of a new project to provide a customized collection of relevant templates.

Font Recommendations uses contextual understanding of project content using artificial intelligence to identify and recommend appropriate fonts from Adobe Font's collection of over 20,000 fonts, allowing text to stand out or blend in. Font recommendations are now available for desktop and coming soon to mobile.

Now available on mobile devices, Refine Cutout uses artificial intelligence to identify additions or subtractions from already selected parts of an image, making it easy to remove unwanted elements and quickly refine images.

Adobe Lightroom

Masking Selection improvements add more ways to make precise, selective adjustments faster and easier.

Object Selection allows users to select objects using a variety of methods, including rough doodling on the photo to select the object or dragging a selection box over the object - Lightroom AI automatically refines the selection.

Adaptive Presets are one-click enhancements unique to a photo that can quickly enhance an entire portrait or focus on specific features with presets, including eye enhancement, teeth whitening, eyebrow darkening, and more with a single click or tap.

Content-Aware Remove boosts healing and performs powerful image editing like dog leash removal. Users can easily remove defects and blemishes, make precise adjustments even faster and complete improvements to their visual content with a single click.

 

Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects

Premiere Pro Auto Color applies intelligent color adjustments and speeds up color correction workflows, while Remix automatically retimes music to match the selected video clip.

After Effects Scene Edit Detection uses AI to automatically detect scene changes in an edited video clip, then converts scenes into individual layers or creates markers at edit points for faster project setup.

Adobe Substance

Adobe Substance 3D AI-Enhanced Materials builds on existing Substance 3D Capture workflows with a new AI feature that can create and intelligently enhance photorealistic 3D textures from either a live camera or specific images. This enables the creation of professional 3D content based on any physical location; Substance 3D subscribers can go beyond just a real-world concept and turn their actual physical environments into production assets.

Building on Adobe's commitment to increasing trust and transparency online, the company introduced its approach to developing creator-centric generative AI offerings by incorporating CAI technology into our tools to support creatives' ability to prove attribution and investing in research to support creatives' control over their style and work.
