With the continuous advancements in technology, it’s no surprise that the world of image editing has been revolutionized with AI-powered features. One such groundbreaking innovation by Adobe Photoshop, in its 2023 edition, is the Generative Expand feature.
Generative Expand is more than just a tool. It’s a testament to the capabilities of artificial intelligence in the realm of digital art and design. It’s an expansion feature that allows designers to aesthetically and logically fill the gaps in an image when it’s expanded.
When you want to stretch and expand an image beyond its original size, usually, there would be white spaces or voids left around. This is where the Generative Expand feature works its magic.
By merely clicking a button, Photoshop sends the image data to Adobe’s servers, which process the image through an AI algorithm. In a short span of 10 to 15 seconds, the user is presented with three alternative expanded images.
The feature’s real power can be seen in its ability to render different scenarios for a single image. Every alternative produced has such attention to detail that one would find it hard to differentiate if it’s AI-generated or real.
While Generative Expand is a giant leap forward, it’s essential to remember that it may not always be perfect. Complex images can sometimes confuse the algorithm. But with time and feedback, such kinks will undoubtedly be ironed out.
