What is AI image style transfer?

AI image style transfer, also known as neural style transfer, is the use of an AI generator to create an image in the style of a reference image. For example, if you want to generate an image of a superhero in a comic book style, you can select the comic book style image from the Digital Illustration section of the Reference Image Gallery. Firefly uses deep neural networks to understand the style of the reference image and apply it to a prompt so you can achieve the look you’re going for quicker and with greater accuracy.

How do image style transfers work?

Image style transfers use trained neural networks, which learn the style features of the reference image (including colours, textures and brush strokes). The neural networks then apply those style features to the content of another image. In Firefly, Generative Match applies the style features to the new images it generates from text prompts.

Is AI image style transfer suitable for commercial use?

As part of Adobe’s effort to design Firefly to be commercially safe, we are training our initial commercial Firefly models on licensed content, such as Adobe Stock and public domain content where copyright has expired. If you upload third-party reference images, you must have the rights to use them.

What’s the best free AI image generator?

Adobe Firefly offers an AI image generator that allows you to create images for free with just a simple prompt. You can then edit the image based on your requirements, by tweaking things such as tone, angle and more. You can also introduce references to style your AI images to match an existing design.
