TL;DR
- Generative Fill brings text-prompted image manipulation directly into Photoshop, powered by Adobe’s Firefly model
- Add, remove, or extend image content by selecting an area and describing what you want - no separate tool, no leaving the canvas
- Sits alongside other Firefly-era features in Photoshop: adjustment presets, the contextual task bar, gradients, and a Remove tool for clean object deletion
- Trained on Adobe Stock and openly licensed work, which makes the output commercially safer than many general-purpose image models
- A clear inflection point for professional retouching - what used to take careful masking and clone-stamping is now a sentence

The same update also added adjustment presets, a new contextual task bar, gradients, and a Remove tool that instantly removes any object or person from an image.
