Adobe has announced a vast array of updates for all of it’s software, including a number of major updates for Photoshop on both desktop and iPad. Also announced is a new Photoshop on the web (beta) app that lets you edit and view your work in your web browser.
There are a number of new neural filters, as well as updates to existing ones. The Neural filters, introduced last year, are a range on non-destructive filters that use Sensei AI (artificial intelligence) machine leaning to produce great results, with one click or sliders to adjust settings. A new filter is Harmonization designed to help you blend tw0 images with matching colour.
