Adobe ships new Photoshop AI features: Light Adjustment Layer, Instruct Edit with Masks powered by Firefly Image 5
rufusd · x · 2026-09-10
Adobe announced a batch of new Photoshop innovations focused on precision and control:
- Light Adjustment Layer: a new non-destructive layer with professional-grade Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites, and Blacks controls — Camera Raw-level results without leaving the layers workflow.
- Instruct Edit with Masks, powered by Firefly Image 5: understands full image context so you can describe edits in plain language (opening closed eyes, placing a hat on a specific person); unmasked areas stay untouched, protecting faces, logos, and brand assets.
- Markup: draw directly on the image to communicate edits — sketch areas to recolor or arrows to indicate positioning.
- Dynamic Text: drag the box and every line stays flush, no manual size tweaks.
The theme: natural instructions and visual annotation driving AI edits while creators keep control.
