Adobe’s New AI Tool Lets You Edit 10,000 Images at Once

Editing images with AI makes complex tasks a breeze, but given how computationally intensive it can be, it’s difficult to find a way to perform bulk edits. However, in the big AI race, Adobe hopes to take the lead by offering people the option to batch edit up to 10,000 images.

Adobe’s new Firefly beta program opens the floodgates for batch AI editing

As reported by The Virginthe creative giant is testing a new beta plan for its AI tool, Adobe Firefly. She is quite generous, even at this stage; people enrolled in the beta can use AI to quickly edit up to 10,000 images.

If you’re expecting complicated and in-depth AI edits, you’ll be a little disappointed. So far, the beta only allows you to resize images, remove backgrounds, or add a new background. However, for people who need to perform these tasks en masse, this should be an excellent way to get the job done.

The resizing tool is particularly useful for content creators, with predefined options for specific platforms and ad banners. If your image is too small, Adobe Firefly expands the canvas and “imagines” what the rest of the image will look like with generative AI. However, The Verge notes that the build isn’t great and features obvious artifacts, so maybe hold onto that one until Adobe can fix the issues.

Adobe states that the cost of editing images will be based on how many of them you upload, which probably means that you will have to purchase credits via Adobe Firefly Services to use this service. And while it’s in private beta right now, Adobe wants to release it publicly during Q1 2025. Until then, if you want to make use of Adobe’s background removal tool but don’t have 10,000 images lying around, you can instead . Try the Photoshop Generative Fill tool.
