Generative Upscale: Am I meant to be impressed?

[drtonyb]

I tried out the new Generative Upscale at 4x in Photoshop 26.11.0 20250806.m.3173 cae8b1d x64 (beta, PublicBeta).

Original photo is at the top, then below from left to right is Image Resize 400%, Generative Upscale 4x and Topaz AI 3.3.3 (old now) Scaled 4x.

If this is the best Adobe can do, I'm far from impressed.

Hi @drtonyb ! Thank you for testing this feature. We're still working on improvements but wanted to get the model out as soon as possible to gather feedback like this to help inform next steps. I'm going to send you a direct message to learn more. Thank you!
