Photoshop has received a new update. However, most of the new features are reserved for the beta version and focus on generating AI images.

Photoshop Beta has gained the Firefly Image 3 model functionality. You no longer need to visit the Firefly website. You can now create AI images directly from Photoshop beta.

Julieanne Kost has made a clear video covering all the Firefly Image 3 model features that Photoshop Beta has gained.

Besides the Firefly implementation, there are smaller updates for selecting fonts and for the adjustment brush. The font updates are the only update for the normal Photoshop version, as far as I know.

For clarity, all updates with the Firefly Image 3 model are exclusively for Photoshop Beta. If you have not installed it, you can do so via the Creative Cloud app. Look for the Beta tab. You can use both the normal and Beta versions side by side.

Thanks Nando.
Clear how the update works and what you can do with it.
I had already wondered whether I could install the beta version without losing my regular version.

Thanks Nando. I was afraid that beta version would be installed over my current version. Apparently not.
But..... I wonder if I need those Firefly options. I edit my own photos and am not busy putting together images based on AI. That has nothing more to do with photography. What use is it to you as a photographer?
For illustrators and graphic designers, it seems like an excellent tool to me.

There is one thing I do find important: It must be clear that I am looking at a real photo or at an image put together on the basis of AI.
