Adobe Introduces Advanced AI Editing Tools in Lightroom and Camera Raw

Adobe has unveiled two innovative AI editing features for Lightroom and Camera Raw, aimed at simplifying photo editing tasks and enhancing image quality.

At the Max Japan 2025 design conference, Adobe pulled back the curtain on two AI-powered editing tools for Lightroom and Camera Raw that are nothing short of revolutionary. Say goodbye to the grind of repetitive edits—these tools are all about making photographers’ lives easier (and their workflows smoother).

First up, Adaptive Profiles are now out of beta and ready for prime time. Imagine this: your HDR images get a smart, dynamic makeover, with tones and colors adjusted on the fly. It’s like having a mini AI assistant that knows exactly what each photo needs, tweaking everything from Exposure to Curves without breaking a sweat.

Then there’s the Distraction Removal tool—currently in Early Access for Camera Raw aficionados. Ever snapped a perfect shot only to find a rogue reflection or an uninvited guest photobombing it? This feature is your new best friend, spotting and zapping those pesky intruders to keep your compositions clean.

And for those drowning in a sea of similar shots, Adobe’s rolling out the Find Duplicates feature in Early Access for Lightroom web users. It’s like a detective for your photo library, sniffing out duplicates so you can focus on editing the gems. Plus, Lightroom mobile for iOS is getting a facelift with snappier link generation and more ways to share your masterpieces. Because let’s face it, sharing should be as effortless as the edits themselves.
