The designers who couldn’t now can. And without a doubt it’s creativity that now will be the new course of levels in the design world

[@Lisampietro]

As a pet photographer, this is a game changer. When removing leashes/harnesses, matching muscle mass and hair can be - trying at times. Although I'm not completely on board with AI, for what I will use it for..... this is a huge time saver! Thank you yet again Kristina!

you're most welcome!! Its gonna be amazing!

I spent hours recently removing and expanding my images, this will save me so much time, thanks Kristina,, Trevor

It will definitely save loads of time!

[@scaryjesus]

I've been messing with this since the new update and I have to admit, this is definitely going to change my workflow. I like to prep stock photos before I turn them into dark art, and the fact I can now extend them with vicious convincing is absolutely wild! Great video, Kristina!

Probably not as Lightroom Classic is more of a photo editing software! I am so glad that Adobe is on the move!

So if your computer is not the latest you cannot use beta to Its full potential. So photoshop is really been not fair on the people that cannot update or afford to update there computer. Even though you might be paying your monthly subscription you loose out on these new updates

[@SharkPixel]

Im not sure I follow. The beta version is public so anyone who choose to, can download it. The reason it's still in beta is so we can all help crowd-source it's improvement. Its also still in beta because Adobe is still making sure none of their pixel generated content directly matches copyrighted material from a reference photo. Once it hits normal photoshop, people will be able to use the generations in commercial work.
