Visual creation is moving faster than ever, and the gap between inspiration and execution is rapidly shrinking. In this new class from the Gen AI App Series, we take a close look at how Adobe Photoshop’s generative AI features are reshaping the way images are created, edited, and refined. Instead of waiting on complex production workflows, creators can now translate simple direction into polished visuals in minutes.
This class focuses on a challenge many designers, marketers, and content teams face today: producing high quality visual assets at speed without sacrificing creative control. Photoshop’s generative tools promise dramatic efficiency gains, but knowing when to rely on AI and when to lean on traditional techniques matters. This walkthrough helps you understand where these features truly accelerate work and where human judgment still plays a critical role.
Through hands on examples, you will see how Photoshop has evolved from a manual editing platform into a semantic, intent driven engine. Features like Generative Fill, Generative Expand, Enhance Detail, and Generate Background are demonstrated in real workflows, showing how complex retouching, background creation, and resizing tasks can be handled with far less friction while maintaining professional standards.
What You’ll Learn
- How to use Generative Fill to add, remove, and modify objects with simple prompts
- How Generative Expand can extend images, change aspect ratios, and uncrop scenes seamlessly
- How Enhance Detail improves sharpness and realism in AI generated areas
- How to generate entirely new backgrounds to reposition subjects instantly
- How to evaluate when generative AI is the right tool versus traditional Photoshop techniques
