Summary

Adobe has released new features for Lightroom and Photoshop Elements 2024. The updates include AI-powered tools for editing portraits. Users can now remove blemishes, refine skin texture, brighten eyes, or whiten teeth in photos. The features use machine learning to automatically detect and adjust facial features.


Our Reading

The launch follows a familiar script.

Adobe’s new features promise to perfect your portraits. Because, apparently, we needed AI to tell us our skin isn’t good enough. The “new” tools are suspiciously reminiscent of features that have been available in other photo editing software for years. It’s not like we’ve been whitening teeth and brightening eyes in photos for decades or anything. Adobe’s just rebranding the same old tricks and calling it innovation.
