Unblur feature that works the exact same way as AI apps.

I am having to export my images and open them in app.remini.ai website and it totally perfects blurry faces without issue and its a lifesaver.

Photoshop should be advanced enough now to have this feature and would be superb to have it and works well, sharpening tool just doesnt cut it. 

Please Adobe check out app.remini.ai/ and implement this fantastic feature for us 🙂

Remini is awesome, the unblur feature is a true lifesaver. Adobe have an AI engine called Sensei, but it looks like adobe don't really believe in AI. Their focuse is on classic applications.

I did watch it and it's totally different. Doesn't work with a blurry image.

Feel free to make your own choices.

 

From where I sit, sometimes AI is good enough but many times it's just meh -- missing the mark in other ways. It all depends on the type of blur & quality of image you're working with.

 

When AI isn't sufficient, it's important to have the necessary tools & talent to do the job right even if it takes longer.  That's what we're paid to do.

 

I posted a video on how to get good results from Photoshop.  Did you look at it?

I used to use it but it just does a poor job compared to modern tech.

The AI makes photoshop pointless as it works better.
 
Look at my example attached and I think Adobe need to look into this.
See images for my example on how good it is. Photoshop cannot do this to this extent and AI is weakening photoshop 

  

AI reconstructed the details and make it look clean and sharp. Photoshop doesn’t do it this good and the smart sharpen does not unblur images.
 
I’m seriously considering leaving done as AI does much better jobs and much cheaper for photography.

Photoshop is not an AI diffusion tool. 

 

That said, the closest thing to 'unblur' can be found under Filters > Sharpen. However every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  In the case of sharpening, you may end up with halos around your image.  That's not good either.

 

My personal favorites are Smart Sharpen and Unsharp Mask. You have more control with these tools.  For best results, copy layer with Ctrl+J first.  Apply filter to topmost layer and if needed, dial it back by reducing the layer's Opacity.   For more details, see this tutorial.

 

 

Hope that helps.
