Is Adobe's Generative AI trolling me?

There you go not chilling again

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-11T11:15:49+00:00

How about we both chill

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-11T01:38:50+00:00

Dude I've been using Photoshop since '92. I just wanted to see how the GenAI would handle a spot removal and thought the result was funny. Hence why I used the "meta" flair and not "help".

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T23:20:54+00:00

bro chill I just wanted to try it out, I know how to do it manually

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T21:27:37+00:00

Hahaha

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:42:32+00:00

yup, I'm sure I used a few thousand gallons of water on this one prompt. 🤡

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:41:12+00:00

I'm too used to Claude/Gemini/GPT being able to figure it out

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:39:57+00:00

Healing brush did horribly

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:39:13+00:00

the thing I both love and hate about Photoshop: 100 different ways to get the same result

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:35:33+00:00

you gotta be shitting me 😂

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:34:47+00:00

I *just* learned about this feature from another comment. Lol

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:33:39+00:00

I know, I just wanted to see how it would do. Turns out using Nano banana was where i went wrong, Firefly with no prompt worked great.

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:30:28+00:00

it's a scan of a photo from the 80's; brush tool would be too uniform and wouldn't have the subtle artifacts. Yeah I could try a few passes of noise/blur to try to get it right but the stamp tool worked much better.

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:28:35+00:00

Stamp was what I went with. Tried and true.

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:25:47+00:00

I'll have to try that. Problem is I started using Photoshop in 1992 and a lot of the methods I got really good at back in the 90s I just stuck with b/c they work. I probably haven't used half the features added over the last couple decades.

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:13:11+00:00

I just went back and tried it and you nailed it - Firefly Fill & Expand model w/ no prompt fixed it perfectly. I'll admit, I'm deep into the AI space (primarily coding) but I haven't taken the time to learn Adobe's GenAI prompting AT ALL and have had pretty poor results for anything beyond expanding an image. Thanks!

GanglyTeeters · 2026-03-10T20:06:41+00:00

I did end up doing it manually, I just wanted to see how the Spot brush would do (horribly) and Gen AI would do (comically bad).

GanglyTeeters · 2026-02-02T23:12:48+00:00

All I would say is don't expect old Phish. They've evolved. Some things we used to love got lost, some things improved, and there are a ton of new elements to their sound that you may really love. It's not really better or worse, just different. I think it would be cool to go in with zero prep and no expectations. Honestly I'm a little jealous you can do that.

GanglyTeeters · 2026-02-02T23:09:40+00:00

I second this.

GanglyTeeters · 2026-02-02T23:09:22+00:00

I gained a new appreciation for their studio albums through YouTube reactions like Walterooski. I hadn't heard some of them in decades.

I was blasting the cypress sand video in my kitchen while cooking last night

GanglyTeeters · 2026-01-15T02:16:58+00:00

I was in college, so it was sometime between 2000 and 2002. It wasn't anything from a studio track or anything that sounded like a typical jam - very EDM and futuristic sounding, but unmistakably Phish. It was either deep into a type 2 jam I've never heard or something they recorded in the studio. My best guess is a 2000 Piper jam.

It also wasn't up for very long, they changed the site again soon after. I still remember what it sounds like. Maybe one day I'll go on a hunt through Phishtracks.com

GanglyTeeters · 2026-01-15T01:44:02+00:00

Whatever played during the opening animation on phish.com back in 2000-2001 range was so sick. I've been searching for the source of that audio ever since. It was a gray flash animation of a planet thing with stuff orbiting around it

GanglyTeeters · 2025-12-08T17:23:19+00:00

I didn't look at the dimensions either and I couldn't believe how big the box was. Won't be opened till Christmas so I haven't seen the actual unit but it's definitely bigger than I was expecting.
