ADOBE'S INDIGO CAMERA APP ADDS GENERATIVE AI TOOLS

Project Indigo launched last year as Adobe's attempt to deliver more natural-looking photos on iPhone. The app now includes an "AI Playground" feature set that introduces generative editing capabilities to mobile photography. The new tools allow users to remove backgrounds from photos taken directly in the app and receive AI-generated critiques of their images. Notably, Adobe's implementation does not rely on its own Firefly AI models. The expansion signals Adobe's broader push to integrate artificial intelligence across its product ecosystem. The company has positioned these features as experimental, giving users control over when and how they apply AI enhancements to their photos. The update raises questions about photo authenticity as camera apps increasingly blur the line between traditional photography and AI-assisted image generation.
