DON’T WANT IT? REMOVE IT!
This new Photoshop tool will revolutionize the way you retouch your photos

Photoshop has a new retouching tool – and it’s likely to become your go-to for many retouching tasks from now on. If you want to remove something from your photo, the new Remove Tool will almost always do a great job.
Simply paint over the offending detail, and it’s gone in a second. In our example, the Remove Tool lets us transform a bustling tourist snap taken at the famous Treasury building in Petra, Jordan, into a wonderfully empty scene.
Of course, the Remove Tool is not quite perfect – but then, what tool is? Before the Remove tool came along, we relied on features such as the Spot Healing and Patch tools. These all base their fixes on the existing content within the image. But the new Remove Tool is different, employing AI to generate new pixels, so it doesn’t necessarily need to feed off other details in the image when you are removing something.
