Lightroom: Fast AI editing with Firefly Remove

Adobe (Nasdaq: ADBE) introduces Generative Remove, a new feature powered by Adobe Sensei's machine learning technology, Firefly. This addition to Lightroom integrates seamlessly into existing mobile, web, and desktop workflows, allowing users to effortlessly remove unwanted objects from photos.

Generative Remove surpasses previous object removal tools in Lightroom. It offers non-destructive editing, enabling users to remove distractions with a single click. The tool intelligently analyzes the surrounding area and generates pixel-perfect replacements, ensuring high-quality, realistic edits. This functionality benefits both casual and professional photographers. Casual users can eliminate distractions from personal photos, while professionals gain a time-saving tool for retouching with finer control.

During its early access phase, Adobe actively seeks feedback from the photography community to refine the model and expand its capabilities within the Lightroom ecosystem.
