Remaking in Photoshop with help from AI

I have the latest version of Photoshop. I would like to use AI in the program to change an existing building, for example to make it older. Is that possible? It seems as if AI is replacing rather than remaking it.

Use a reference image.  I started with the upper modern image and used the prompt 'Make building look delapidated'

I found the image I used for a reference, and saved it to a local drive, and used the icon (red arrow) to select that image.

You can see the results in the properties panel.  They fit the original perspective perfectly, but might be more old than you are going for, so you need to chose a suitable reference.  It's pretty clever how it fits similar looking images to the original.

You may have better luck selecting separate portions of the building in the image and using AI to generate characteristics that make it appear older. I would recommend targeting each selection with its own prompt such as a "jagged crack with masonry showing," "overgrown weeds," or "broken window."

Hi Myra,
maybe I've been expecting a little too much from this form of PS AI. If I try "broken windows", the AI ​​replaces the window with images of other broken windows. I would like AI ​​to use my information about my window and turn this into broken panes, for example. But maybe that's asking too much.
