New GenFill/Expand Model in 9/9 Photoshop Desktop Beta  
A test version of the Firefly Model for Generative Fill, Generative Expand, and Reference Image for GenFill in Photoshop for desktop was released to our public Beta on 9/9.
The benefits users should see:

  • better generation quality than the previous beta builds
  • better prompt understanding compared to previous beta builds.
  • Fix for the Opacity workflow bug (went to beta on 9/5) 
    This reinstates the ability to use a semi-transparent mask to control the intensity of  Generative Fill variations (Like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUJSIzCW5L4)
    or to give a photo a painterly effect (Like this: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/zLdLlj712Fg)
  • Reference Image for Generative Fill improvements (more realistic shadows & scale)


Please grab the latest Prerelease/Beta build and try some Gen-Fill Fun and Gen-Expand Excitement! And don't forget to rev up & revisit Reference Image.

We'd love to hear your feedback and see files.
Thank you,
The Photoshop team

Russell had a set of actions to accomplish the painting effect as well:
