Generative Fill produces blurry results

Hello everyone, I'm trying out the new generative fill feature that uses artificial intelligence, and it's truly impressive! However, I'm currently experiencing an issue, and I'm not sure if it requires specific settings or if it's a problem that still needs to be resolved since it's in beta. The problem I'm facing is that when I generate an AI-assisted edit, the resulting image is blurry and unusable. I'm attaching an example here. In this case, I enlarged the original image and had the AI reconstruct parts of the background that didn't exist. If you zoom in, you'll notice the clear difference between the original photo and the reconstructed part. Am I doing something wrong with the settings? Please let me know. Thank you.

 

I am using a Macbook Pro M1 Max

Mac Os 13.3.1 (a) (22E772610a)

AI is limited to resolution of 1024x1024, Meaning it will not generate clear results if your image is bigger than that (There is a workaround thought)

Please see this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGJ0KjT4Xds

This will fix your issue most likely 🙂

Has the limit of 1024x1024 been reduced lately? Normally I used the workaround that was shared in this thread, but since a couple of days that gives me blurry results. I had to downscale to generating at around 700x700px in order to get sharp results.

I have also experienced the blur with the extended AI area. I tried it on a landscape (5616 px x 3744px) and was initially impressed with the results until I zoomed in to 100%. I found the areas that were unsharp in the original were matched perfectly but where the foreground was in focus the generated extension was noticeably unsharp. 

 

I didn't see a size restriction (I looked at on the Help section within PS). I looked at Adobe's site (https://www.adobe.com/uk/products/photoshop/generative-expand.html) but didn't see a restriction there. 

 

I did see the limitation discussed in Julieanne Kost's very informative video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhYQsA7leFM) where she shows the option to enhance the generated detail (about 7 min 14 sec in). I triedthis but the results  went from blury to something else quite unusable.

 

I'm not sure 1024x1024 pixels is very high unless you're just using an image for the Web. Otherwise it's just not going to be useful.

 

If Adobe did manage to scale up the technology then I think it's a game changer, but, as of August 2024, it's of limited use.

Someone recently mentioned that Generative Fill should render 2000px x 2000px now (if so I suspect it’s possibly 2048px x 2048px). 

 

A test with a graphic checkerboard seems to indicate that might still stil 1024px x 1024px for Generative Fill. 

See the difference in below screenshots.

My image is 1080 x 1080 and i am only trying to use Generative fill for a portion of my image and it is still producing a lower res fill than the rest of my image. What am i doing wrong here?

Could you please post screenshots taken at View > 100% with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible? 

 

Ultimately the feature may just not live up to your expectations …

I can't help thinking about how this will be tended to if and when the element gets a general delivery; the transmission of the information for pictures bigger than 1024px x 1024px to and from the Adobe servers appears to be a conceivably enduring bottleneck …

Is this a rewrite of a previous post of mine on this thread?

Ha, that is funny. I mean it's not a high crime of plagerism of fiction writing, its more an agreement with your viewpoint and brought up again in a different conversation. It does feel a bit like an attempt to be perceived clever based on the writings of another. Speaking of AI, we all now wrestle with the thoughts that maybe your original thought was helped or entirely created by AI. Not saying it is, I would wager it's not but everything has to be questioned now.

Hello. 

I don't understand. Is it a Photoshop problem or is the procedure I'm using incorrect? I followed the video perfectly but the generated images are blurry and of low resolution.

Please provide meaningful information; what are the image’s pixel dimensions, what were the Selections pixel dimensions, …? 

 

Generative Fill creates a 2000px x 2000px images and upsamples that if necessary.

the image has a resolution of approximately 3450x2800. I increased the width of the image by 1014px and the selection measured 1024px x 1024px. I also tried with 900px solutions but the result was the same.

I have noticed the same problem, its just bad. If we are all going to have to go back and fix the problems that AI have created, then really, what is the point in the first place.

I agree and have noticed the same problem, AI results are very poor and not fit for purpose. I have noticed that when anyone, including me makes comments about it, community experts are very quick to try and shut down these points of view. It is very clear and obvious that AI is going to degrade the quality of creatives work and ultimately drive the price creatives can charge down with it, meanwhile Adobe will continue to hike up its price every year in return for products that are getting worse due to the inclusion of AI. Please can adobe address this problem and make it very clear to everyone who has or is thinking of having an Adobe subscription that it is not for professional use and that professional creatives work at a much higher standard than the AI results.

Are you (aside from monetary issues and community experts disagreeing with you) complaining about the implementation of Generative AI in Photoshop at all or just the quality of its output (edit: or both)?

Professionals (not all, but at least some) use Photoshop’s Generative AI-related features (which includes Remove Tool etc.). 

If they remember to check the results and, if necessary, just use the techniques they have been using previously in digital image editing to amend or completely redo the created content why would they not?

The much advertised Photoshop AI is simply bad. The results are unusable for me.

We can help you fix that if you like.  Tell us where you are having difficulty, and we'll show how.

 

In fact, if you just check out The Photoshop Training Channel, and Photoshop Cafe YouTube channels, and search them for Generative Fill, I think you'll be golden.

Could you provide a specific site? If it is a work-around, it is still dissapointing..  I've been with PS for decades. The AI is not up to Adobe standards.

So today I installed version 25 of Photoshop with generative fill officially open for commercial use.

Still the generated images are blurry and of low resolution. Not really of any use...

So when is there gonna be high resolution support coming?

I wonder how this will be addressed if and when the feature gets a general release; the transmission of the data for images larger than 1024px x 1024px to and from the Adobe servers seems like a possibly lasting bottleneck …
