Adobe presented a host of functions that will come to Photoshop and other applications in your Creative Cloud suite.

The flagship application for editing images has integrated a function that uses AI to Locate distracting elements in a photo, such as people, cables, and other unwanted objects. With this feature, the user will be able to delete them with the push of a button.
Eliminating distractions is added as an additional feature within the Healing Brush tools. When activated, the user will be able to press a button to search for distractions and will have the option to select those they want to eliminate. By doing so, the algorithm will intelligently replace the background, similar to what generative fill does.
