Adobe is rolling out a series of new Photoshop tools in beta that it claims will eliminate “tedious steps, reduce friction, and make precision editing faster and more intuitive.”

The new features include Generative Upscale for desktop and web, allowing you to enhance images by up to 8 megapixels before losing quality. This tool can be used for things such as improving photos you want to print or updating older files. According to Adobe, this feature has been one of the most requested among its users.

Then there’s the updated Remove tool, courtesy of the new Adobe Firefly Image Model. It does all the tidying and erasing you would expect, but also should provide a more realistic image. As Adobe puts it, there should be “fewer artifacts” left of the thumb, background people or whatever else you removed from the photo. It’s also available in beta on desktop and web.

Adobe is also rolling out the Harmonize feature, first discussed as Project Perfect Blend during the company’s October 2024 Max conference. Powered by the Adobe firefly Image Model, Harmonize “intelligently analyzes the surrounding context, automatically adjusting color, lighting, shadows, and visual tone to create seamless, cohesive composites.” Adobe claims this will reduce the time needed for manual adjustments. On top of trying out the beta on desktop or web, it’s also available in Early Access for mobile iOS users.

You can now use the Gen AI Model Picker to move between the different Firefly Image Models, as they each offer something a bit different when using the tools. Plus, Photoshop is rolling out something else in beta called Projects which, well, manages your projects. It should keep all your files in one place and let you send out entire collections, rather than one version at a time.
