Adobe released their recent tool, Generative Fill, in their recent public Beta and it’s caught everyone’s attention! I was skeptical of the videos I saw so I wanted to put it to the test myself from a working retoucher’s perspective to see if it holds up and where it fails.

I also compare it to the brand new Remove Tool to see what tool works better. I also compare it to tools like content aware scale!

This photo was taken in Iceland during our yearly Creative Adventure where we take a select group of like minded creatives through Iceland and produce epic photoshoots along the way at a collection of unique locations! We create, unwind, and excel together. If you’re interested in joining check out https://iceland.solsticeretouch.com
