Adobe camera app’s new feature will critique your photos using AI

Adobe is adding new AI-powered features to its experimental iOS camera app called Project Indigo, launched last year . The app previously offered pro controls, multi-frame super-resolution, and different capture modes, and is now adding features that will use LLMs (large language models) to critique photos and provide editing suggestions.

It’s also adding other AI features, like advanced object removal, depth of field generation, and the ability to add different styles to photos.

Marc Levoy, the person heading Adobe’s project, had previously developed Pixel’s camera chops. He said that most generative AI tools provide prompt-based editing and, often, finding the perfect prompt to tweak a photo or get the right result can be a tricky endeavour. That’s why most of the new experimental AI features are buttons that can generate more deterministic outputs.
