Recently I started a photoshop trial because I needed to spice up some photos with generative fill. It’s unbelievably amazing. Even deleted a person who covered up half of the bodies of 3 people. After some tweaks I got a perfect image from a very important photo that I thought as lost because I frogged up that shot. It didn’t save me a lot of headache, it also gave me a lot of free time and, what’s also important, the customer is happy.
I consider myself a die hard serif fan, who always promoted their suite. I even bought v2 suite right from the start, even though I only need photo, even though the changes are minimal, just to support them but without AI features I don’t see myself upgrading in the future.
Generative Fill and other adobe live features will force me every now and then to purchase a month of photoshop. And god knows I hate adobe, their business practice and especially their UI. But it makes me have more free time, which is so rare nowadays with a 40 hours 5 day work week.
