Adobe Photoshop AI Assisted Editor: Compare

Adobe's AI Assisted Editor is a beta editing mode inside Photoshop on desktop. Adobe offers it to current Photoshop subscribers who have installed the required update. You can describe changes in a prompt bar and switch back to Pro Editor for Photoshop's full toolset. Adobe distinguishes this mode from the separate AI Assistant. The editor includes Prompt to Edit, Generative Fill and Expand, plus visual markup for communicating edits. Adobe says switching into the mode creates a flattened working copy while preserving the original Pro Editor file and layers. On return, Photoshop places the changes on a new generative layer. Features consume different amounts of generative credits. For a retoucher or art director, the handoff needs a clear brief: preserve the layered source, inspect the returned result, and identify which details need further editing. Keeping the original layers does not establish that each generated change returns as a separate editable component.
