While traditional photo editors have a steep learning curve, AI photo editors can get things done in a jiffy. You don’t have to learn all the different ways to isolate your subject in photos and apply new adjustments. New AI tools for photo editing allow you to quickly select a part of an image and make adjustments using a text prompt. So, I have picked the best AI tools for photo editing that can help streamline your workflow and make image editing easier for you.
1. Adobe Photoshop
If you are looking for a complete photo editor with support for AI tools, there is no better option than Adobe Photoshop. Yes, it has a steep learning curve and the Adobe suite is quite expensive, but Adobe Photoshop offers a complete package for professional users. You can both inpaint and outpaint with Photoshop.
It allows you to fill or remove objects using Generative Fill and lets you expand the boundary of any image using Generative Expand. Simply select a part of the image, and recreate new variations using the Generate Similar tool. You can also retouch photos using natural prompts.
Next, you can remove the background seamlessly and add a new one with lighting and shadows intact. Not only that, you can also generate new images inside the Photoshop editor itself. To get started, you can follow our tutorial on how to use Photoshop’s AI Generative Fill tool.
2. Pixlr Express
For those who are looking for a free AI tool for photo editing, Pixlr Express is the best service out there. It has a user-friendly interface so even beginners can start using it. Best of all, free users get 50 AI credits, and every AI generation consumes just 1 credit. You just have to sign up and create a free account.
The best part about Pixlr Express is that you get nearly all of the premium Adobe Photoshop features for free. You have Generative Fill that allows you to generate or replace anything on the image using a simple prompt. Next, you can expand the boundary of the image, swap faces, transform images, remove and generate new backgrounds, and much more.
Furthermore, you can upscale images and make them sharp by removing noise. Simply put, for general users, Pixlr Express offers everything you would need in an AI photo editor, and mostly for free. By the way, you can add 200 more AI credits by simply paying $2.99.

Simply put, after Pixlr Express, I would strongly recommend users try out Adobe Firefly as it’s free to use, unlike Photoshop.

Picsart has also developed a powerful AI photo editor, however, to use the AI tools, you will have to get the paid plan. Nevertheless, if you want an easy-to-use AI photo editor, you can bet your money on Picsart. It lets you remove and add objects, apply AI effects and filters, upscale your images, and more.

BONUS: ChatGPT Dall -E 3 Inpainting
In case you are unaware, OpenAI recently added image editing to ChatGPT, which is powered by the Dall -E 3 model. Having said that, you can’t upload and edit your existing images with ChatGPT. You can generate an image in ChatGPT using the Dall -E 3 model and then apply edits on top of it.
Simply click on the generated image in ChatGPT, and click on the brush icon on top. Now, select a part of the image and you can now enter the text prompt as to how you want to modify it. The new image will be generated right away. This is the beginning of image editing on ChatGPT.
We hope that OpenAI extends the functionality and brings more photo editing tools to ChatGPT.
So that wraps up our list of the best AI photo editors. I personally use Pixlr Express for AI photo editing as it’s free and works pretty well for a wide variety of use cases. Which one is your favorite tool? Let us know in the comments below.
