ERX: Give Lightroom Classic the Love It Deserves, Add Generative Enhance and Extend

I’m not sure how feasible this would be, given the differences between Lightroom and Lightroom Classic, but I would love to see features such as Generative Enhance and Generative Extend, that are already within Lightroom added to Lightroom Classic. Personally it is always exciting to see announcements about new AI powered tools that can enhance an image natively or generatively extend its boundaries, like most recently when I saw on my instagram from Lightroom a new feature had been pushed for border extension, I was so happy to see that, but that excitement quickly turns into disappointment when I realize those features are available only in Lightroom and not in Lightroom Classic.

Could Adobe please bring these capabilities to Lightroom Classic as well?

I have always described Lightroom as an excellent option for quick, on the go editing, beginner friendly editing, while Lightroom Classic provides greater control, functionality, and precision needed for a more advanced editing workflow. I was trained primarily on Lightroom Classic, so I recognize that I may be somewhat biased, but it remains my preferred application for professional work.

It is frustrating to switch between Lightroom and Lightroom Classic simply to access a feature that is exclusive to one application, especially when Lightroom Classic is designed to provide a more technical and comprehensive level of control. Bringing Generative Enhance and Generative Extend to Lightroom Classic would help create a more consistent workflow and allow longtime Classic users to benefit from Adobe’s newest AI powered tools without having to move their projects between applications.
