Adobe Photoshop
What it is
Adobe Photoshop is the long-running image editing application from Adobe, now built with generative AI throughout. Generative Fill and Generative Expand, powered by Adobe Firefly models, let you add, replace or extend parts of an image from a text prompt. Other AI tools include an improved Remove tool for unwanted objects and people, Harmonize for matching lighting and color when compositing, subject selection and background removal, and partner upscaling models. These sit alongside the traditional layers, masks, retouching and color tools professionals rely on. Photoshop runs on desktop, the web and mobile. The desktop app offers a free trial, the mobile app has a free tier, and full access requires a Creative Cloud subscription.

Editor's notes
More context from AI BirdView
Photoshop's AI story is compelling because the generative features live inside a mature, precise editor. You can extend a background with a prompt, remove a distraction or blend a new subject into a scene, then refine every pixel with the layers, masks and adjustments professionals have used for decades.
- Generative Fill and Generative Expand built on Adobe Firefly models
- Remove tool for clearing unwanted objects and people quickly
- Harmonize, which matches lighting, shadows and color when compositing
- Precise subject selection and background removal
- Desktop, web and mobile apps that share the same subscription
It is the natural choice for photographers, designers and retouchers who need both AI speed and fine manual control. If you only need occasional edits, check the Creative Cloud Photography plan, which bundles Photoshop with Lightroom at a lower monthly rate than the standalone plan. Use the free desktop trial to test generative features on your own images before subscribing. Firefly-powered features draw on generative credits, so check how many your plan includes if you lean on them heavily.
