In a world driven by technological advancements, it’s always exciting to dive into new software tools and unleash their potential. Recently, I embarked on a fascinating journey of exploration, delving into the realms of Realtor AI and Photoshop AI.
There is something uniquely gratifying about exploring the familiar from an entirely new perspective. As a long-time user of Adobe Photoshop and a professional in the real estate field, I’ve always aimed to keep learning and staying on top of the latest tech trends. Hence, when the opportunity arose to delve into the world of Realtor AI and Photoshop AI, it felt like the stars had aligned in a perfect combination for my tech exploration journey.
Join me as I share the highlights of the incredible experiences I had with these innovative technologies.
Realtor AI: Visualizing and Locating Dream Homes
Realtor AI Dream Home, a service provided by the popular Realtor.com, is a sophisticated online software that allows users to describe their dream homes in vivid detail, generating images of what that dream house might look like. But it doesn’t stop there. The AI then searches online for places that match the description and visuals of your dream home, creating a shortlist of potential real-world matches.
The use of Realtor AI was remarkably straightforward. I navigated to their website, and on their user-friendly interface, I was prompted to describe my dream home. I paused. What do I like? Well, I’m not a big fan of stairs, which made me lean toward a cozy rambler. Swimming, on the other hand, is an activity I enjoy, hence the desire for a pool. After consolidating these preferences, I poured my dream into words: “A rambler made entirely of glass. I want a pool too.”
The AI system then started its magical process. It parsed my description, using sophisticated machine learning algorithms to understand and translate my words into an architectural concept. Within moments, the software generated some digital images that embodied my vision. Here they are:
Option 1
Option 2
Option 3
As you can see, the digital homes are stunning – sleek and modern glass ramblers, each one featuring a sparkling pool. But Realtor AI wasn’t done. It used these images as a blueprint to search the MLS (Multiple Listing Service), a comprehensive database used by real estate professionals.
The AI dove into the sea of MLS listings, comparing architectural styles, features, amenities, and other details of available properties to the images of my glass rambler and it returned a curated list of real-world properties that closely resembled my dream home. Each listing was not only architecturally similar but also had the coveted pool I desired, as you can see from the screenshot below.
The precision and efficiency of this search were a testament to the power of artificial intelligence in transforming traditional processes, ensuring a highly personalized and user-centric approach. This enlightening journey did, however, lead to an obvious reality check: my dream home and my wallet are not exactly on speaking terms!
Photoshop AI: Revolutionizing Photo Editing with Generative Fill
Photoshop’s Generative Fill, powered by Adobe’s Firefly generative AI technology, allows users to add, modify, or remove content from images in a matter of seconds using simple text prompts. Generative Fill combines the speed and simplicity of generative AI with Photoshop’s precision, enabling customers to realize their visions faster than ever.
With its deep integration of AI across Photoshop’s tools, it supercharges creativity, enabling precise control for quality content creation. It matches the perspective, lighting, and style of images, allowing users to achieve fantastic results while reducing tedious tasks.
Letting my imagination go wild, I decided to use this new feature to add some fun elements to my dream home and thought up some things that you wouldn’t usually see in a regular home listing. But before introducing my wild and wacky elements, I quickly realized I’d need a bigger canvas to accommodate my unconventional vision. Thankfully, Photoshop AI is equipped with an incredible intuitive feature that makes increasing the size of the photo a breeze. Here’s the before and after:
When I expanded the photo, the software didn’t just add a plain, empty space. Instead, it cleverly detected what the existing background was about and added more of the same to maintain continuity. Whether it was the color of the sky, the texture of the ground, or the pattern of the trees, Photoshop AI ensured that my expanded canvas looked as natural and consistent as possible. This level of detail added an extra layer of realism to my otherwise fantastical creation.
At this point, I let my imagination loose and decided to incorporate elements, such as a dolphin swimming in the backyard pool, a huge pizza lying flat in the yard (for whenever I feel hungry), and a spaceship floating right above the pizza, all set for some quick trips into space or to Italy.
This wasn’t just a house I was making, it was a wild mix of fun and fantasy, all thanks to the magic of AI.
This exploration journey has been a brilliant fusion of my passions. As I continue to uncover new features and applications, I remain eager to share my insights and excitement with my readers.
