21 Images That Reveal Hidden Scenes Of Famous Images, Made By Twitter User Who Tested The Newest Photoshop Feature
InterviewThere is no doubt that AI is developing rapidly and every day we see how advanced it is already, just to be even more shocked the next day to discover some more possibilities it has to offer. The points of view people have about this technology are rather diverse. Some of them are amazed and excited to see how much it helps in their everyday tasks, while others hate it for sourcing its “skills” and inspirations from other, real artists. There are also some people who maybe have heard something about it, but they do not care to explore this topic.
More and more software has started introducing features based on AI. Adobe is no different. Very recently, Photoshop released the new tool, AI Generative Fill, allowing, for example, removing unwanted objects from the background, adding objects to the image, or extending the canvas. Twitter user StepnEurope decided to test the newest feature and use it for extending his favorite memes and photographs. We must say, the effects of this experiment are quite impressive! Let us know in the comments below what you think and if you have yet to play around with Photoshop’s AI Generative Fill.

Disaster Girl
You can tell it's AI because of the blur also the situation has escalated from one house to the whole town.
Idk, but there's a similar white one on the other side.

First, we wanted to know what inspired him to apply the Generative AI Fill technique to popular images and memes. Beka told us: “I've been using AI tools from day one and have always been a big fan of generative AI tools like Midjourney and MOOAR. As soon as I saw the capabilities of the Photoshop beta, I wanted to test it on images that we are all familiar with. I couldn't think of a better choice than memes, so I grabbed my favorites and began experimenting.”
Think About It
My guess is a shop window with advertisements and newspaper clippings
Load More Replies...no reflection on the glass too. I don't think people's reflections are houses
This doesn't look much like the video the screen cap is taken from. Neat though.
Lunch Atop A Skyscraper, 1932
Are they vampire construction workers? There's no reflection on the left (which look like windows and reflections)
Wait... why did AI presume the city was in ruins all around them?
This is how the Empire State Building, for instance, was build in the early 20th century. No safety concerns for the workers. The pay was better then construction workers closer to the ground so for many it was worth the risk. Although I have to say, you wouldn't get me up there for any price.
Next, we asked Beka if he stumbled upon any challenges or limitations he encountered while using the AI feature on these images. He answered: “The funniest part is, despite using Adobe tools for a decade, the Generative AI Fill tool is incredibly easy to use. You simply highlight the empty area and click 'generate'. I didn't retouch the final photos to showcase the true capabilities of Adobe's Firefly.”
On the contrary, we asked if he encountered any challenges while modifying the images. Zakaidze answered: ”Not at all. This was genuinely a one-click fun experience. I'm not even sure why it's in beta; I can hardly imagine what the final version could do better.”
Hide The Pain Harold
Harold's body was cut in half one day when he volunteered for audience participation at a magic show. Now he rests comfortably on his favorite chair and a huge pillow.
Oh, I thought that was just the top half of his amputated legs
Load More Replies...Harold is hiding the pain he has in the whole chair filling a$$ he got going
And that would be the last time Harold ever volunteered to be sawed in half at the amateur magic night! (Seriously though, did AI just chop of the rest of this body?)
Distracted Boyfriend
AI doesnt like feet or hands to much, in my NightCafe experiences
Load More Replies...Couple down the street on the right seem to have one leg each.
Load More Replies...We were wondering if there were there any specific memes or images that stood out to Beka as particularly intriguing or enjoyable to work with. We found out that: “The first one in my thread, 'Disaster Girl,' was the most fun to work with. So many details were unveiled; I felt as though I was always looking at the extended version.”
Side-Eye Chloe
I know for a fact if I got this reference it would be so funny.
Load More Replies...Wow, Adobe really needs to improve their AI. What in the eldritch terror is happening in the back?
was this not shot in a car? now it looks like a dirtect flight to hell
Afghan Girl (Sharbat Gula) By Steve Mccurry
Has everyone seen the picture of her grown up when the photographer went back and found her?
Lastly, we asked Beka to share some future plans or ideas he has in mind to further explore and innovate with Generative AI Fill. He revealed: “I've tried this tool on iconic photos and Einstein's photo came out particularly great. As I'm using these tools daily, I plan to periodically share my work.”
Einstein's Tongue
How on earth did it know that a woman was there just by like 12 pixels of a nose!?
It didn't. And it got it wrong- Eistein was sitting between Frank Aydelotte and his wife Marie. AI turned 70 year old Frank into a 29year old model, and erased Marie altogether!

Her, I think. If I zoom further, I might be able to read the signature on that rock
Load More Replies...Woman Yelling At A Cat
A lot of the hands in this are weird, but I still love it. Technology is advancing!
Load More Replies...And the green arm is not hers, her hands are folded in her lap. Then the white shirt arm below it is only from the elbow down and levitating.
Load More Replies...This is so bizarre and like something out of a fever dream. I kind of love it.
What's up with the hand above the cat in the cat's frame?
Loch Ness Monster
Those trees have no reflection in the water... Just goes to show what kind of progress AI may need to make.
Coukd be a bit of reflection at the top. It looks kinda like a mirage. I think it just the abgle
Load More Replies...I mean to me it looks like someone is sticking their arm above the water and their hand is the face

Migrant Mother By Dorothea Lange
This photo has a huge back story behind it that isn't known by most people. It is not "empathetic photographer randomly happens upon impoverished Dust Bowl travelers who consent to a couple of off-the-cuff shots." The woman didn't want the photos published & the photographer was a manipulative a*s who embellished the account. I've read this in multiple places, & she and the family confirmed this.

Yes, photographer says the children's heads were turned backwards because they couldn't stop laughing

And like you, I'm a genius before my time. Disbelieving, that's the real crime
Load More Replies...I would have loved to see what the AI would have done, if they cropped half his hair off before submitting it.

I don't see any tufts of grass, maybe a couple weird shadows could be interpreted as grass, but they don't look like it to me.

I Bet He's Thinking About Other
It's made their bed into a pull out couch and neither body is bending in a way that an alive body can bend 😟
but what if I told you I can bend into both of those positions with ease? 😭
Load More Replies...Considering the position of her butt relative to his, I'd say AI has made her around 8 to 9 ft tall.
He's upset because he just found out that she is one of the aliens frim "Arrival."
Americans Raising The Flag On Iwo Jima Wwii
I don't know what propaganda you're citing, but you're attempt to turn Iwo Jima into some sort of pyrrhic victory is just plain bizarre. There were 1,170 planes involved in Iwo Jima, of which 153 were downed (13%). Losses were heavy (6,000 men), but the ratio of those killed was very lopsided: 19,000 Japanese were killed. And this was for an offensive operation, which usually sees the aggressor face greater losses.
Load More Replies...There were two American flags raised on top of Mount Suribachi, on February 23, 1945. The original of this photo that photographer Rosenthal took was actually of the second flag-raising, a re-enactment, in which a larger replacement flag was raised by different Marines than those who raised the first flag two hours earlier. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raising_the_Flag_on_Iwo_Jima
I always wondered what the guy in back is doing, it doesn't look like he's really helping...

What is the point of any of these? Sure, it's impressive what AI can do but these are just showcasing how uncreative and uninteresting it is.
American Troops Approaching Omaha Beach In World War II
These suck! No imagination to make them fun..just a.i. being boring
Yeah, the only things interesting about AI are the mistakes and the existential threat to objective truth.
Load More Replies...Hmmm. This is one of the few that actually improve the vibe of the picture. It is a little more balanced than the original, but the focus still is in the middle. I love this result
That's kind of the point. AI can make something that looks vaguely right, but that doesn't actually mean the AI has any clue what it's doing. They're not actually in any danger of replacing us any time soon.
Load More Replies...I'd be interested to see how actual humans would complete this task and comparing the results.
It's pretty good. If they removed the white frame, I wouldn't notice anything wrong with most of the pictures.
i have the photoshop beta. this process takes 5 seconds and one click - hardly groundbreaking content.
This just went to prove that AI has a long way to go. Many of these images where inaccurate or just flat-out bizarre.
I'll admit that I'm not knowledgeable enough to understand the AI controversy but if this is an example....... I still don't understand.
