Creative software giant Adobe has launched Generative Remove in Lightroom, powered by its in-house model Adobe Firefly, for mobile, web, and desktop editing. This tool allows users to remove unwanted objects from photos in a single click, matching the removed area for high-quality results.
The feature is designed for all photographers, from hobbyists to professionals, and is now available for early access.
Additionally, Lightroom has also introduced the AI-powered Lens Blur tool, which adds aesthetic blur effects with a single click, and includes new presets. These updates aim to streamline photo editing workflows, making the process faster and more intuitive.
Adobe’s Generative Remove can handle complex backgrounds, enhancing the editing experience by removing distractions and imperfections. The tool’s early access phase invites community feedback to improve its capabilities further.
Other updates include expanded tethering support for new cameras, HDR Optimisation for vivid photo editing, and a revamped mobile editing interface. Generative Remove is powered by Adobe Firefly, trained on licensed content to avoid copyright issues.
Adobe emphasises responsible AI development, adhering to accountability, responsibility, and transparency principles. Content Credentials will be attached to photos edited with Generative Remove, ensuring authenticity and trust.
“We want to use AI responsibly and prioritise the protection of intellectual property,” Prativa Mohapatra, VP and MD of Adobe India, told AIM in an interaction last week. “We employ measures like content credentials, which have become the industry standard for digital content provenance.”
The new features are available across the Lightroom ecosystem, including mobile, desktop, iPad, and web. For more details, visit Adobe’s official site.
