Photoshop Gets New AI Editing Tools

There is no tool that can catch 100% of AI images while not categorizing any non-AI images as AI.

People also thought AI text detection worked too and that has been thoroughly debunked.

You won’t convince anyone who doesn’t like what is happening, and eventually they’ll come around to reality just as what happened with text where eventually most everyone who had been using those detection tools stopped.

There will probably be some forensics but since there is no regulation there won’t be watermarks or necessarily any embeddings, and that was really what is needed.
 
I remember learning to make drop shadows with Photoshop, v1.5 or 2 before layers (v3?) — I can't remember. My tutor was Luanne Seymor Cohen at Adobe. You had to make your selection (manually), create two channels, offset and blur one channel, subtract one channel from the other, load the channel as a selection, fill the selection, and adjust the opacity of the fill. Deselect — something like that and you were a King if you had the know-how. Tech has passed me by — glad I'm a year to retirement.

I remember that too - way to make me feel old! And think of how much time you spent learning to use the pen tool to make selections (and I never was that good at it) when now you can just click 'remove background'. The reason I like some of this new Adobe AI stuff is that it allows you to do creative things that were previously difficult because of software knowledge/skills or limited by time. In other words, you had a creative vision but were limited by the tools or even IT skills. The people who don't embrace at least this aspect of AI assistance are going to be left behind.

I am optimistic that once we're over this current wave of enthusiasm for wholly AI generated words/music/art, that people will go back to wanting human inspired creativity again. We're just getting over the wow factor and will adjust to just using as tools. And if I'm wrong, well I fear I'm too old too to start again!
 
Still, Photoshop cannot remove correctly a background in simple situation...put an object on a table with the shadow around, PS will struggle to cut precisely the shadow, and if you have a hole inside the object, PS is unable to remove the background of this hole !
