As usual the comments here are very negative on anything and everything AI. This will definitely have appeal for normal users outside of HN bubble. This is also why Google is in a unique position to be able to really capitalize on AI: they already have users that they can ship to vs the next YC startup being able to hit critical mass.

If you want to try well-engineered neural network use, you should be trying Adobe's products. They have integrated these features with far more tact and actual benefit than I would've expected from them. Google is embarrassing themselves by stuffing AI in places it doesn't fit, and Microsoft is worse.
You're joking right? Google is integrating photo editing features that can exist at the point of inception. It doesn't get more integrated or fit better than that.
But it shouldn't have been conceived with that design. Adobe products blend a timesaving tool into a truly productive workflow. Photoshop, a layer or a filter. Lightroom, a brush. Mystery-meat autocorrect/enhance buttons only get you so far and may alter far more than you want, which is dangerous when you want to want to present a slightly polished version of reality.
meta is the worst offender
