    Lightroom finally gets AI-based noise reduction.

    A new AI-powered Lightroom tool introduces automated denoising that instantly removes static-like grain on images taken in low light.

    One-click noise removal is something that competitors like TopazLabs and DxO have offered for a while now. It seems a lot of recent updates for Creative Cloud applications focus on automating professional processes as Adobe races to remain competitive with smaller, nimbler apps.

    Two versions of the same image stacked. The top image is clear, while the lower image contains a lot of fuzzy background noise.
    Lightroom’s new Denoise feature uses AI to quickly clean up and repair images with grainy background noise.

    ChatGPT is helping hustlers hold down multiple full-time jobs.

    One individual in the self-referred “overemployed” community claims in an interview with Vice that OpenAI’s chatbot automates around 80 percent of his work, ranging from writing product releases to messaging his boss on Slack.

    Overemployment isn’t anything new, but a person using generative AI to hog many jobs is a zesty spin on fears that an AI workforce will eventually replace us entirely.
