In the last year, AI-generated imagery has been one of the most popular trends, with a number of photo editing apps and other tools like Dall-E and Adobe Firefly coming to the fore. One such tool, Canva Magic Edit, is an AI-powered tool accessible to Canva Pro users, which allows editing of a selected area on an image. Just select an area and give a prompt instruction, and the tool will come up with a wide range of AI-generated images.
This has opened up new avenues for creative inspiration, allowing users to use the tool for a wide array of applications, from simply adjusting a look for a social media post or for professional headshots, to using it for creative projects such as adding superhero figures or changing the background of the image.
In addition, Magic Edit is quite accessible when compared to tools like Adobe’s Create Cloud, which require pricey subscriptions, or Dall-E, with its credits-based payment system. It is an ideal choice for micro-influencers, photographers, or even just hobbyists who want to have fun with producing images quickly. Despite its AI limitations, the tool is incredibly versatile, and can be used to twist images until they enter the realm of surrealism.
Canva is a company devoted to creating visuals and promoting visual communication. Founded in 2012, they have quickly expanded to become one of the foremost names in digital design. Their range of services, including their Magic Edit tool, are targeted at brand specialists, web developers, and creatives.
TikTok creator @positivelyuncensored made use of Magic Edit to play hairdresser. While the AI is still not sophisticated enough to make radical changes to one’s appearance, it was able to give Jason A Wheeler a clean restyle, changing his natural mahogany locks to a far more superhero-like blue and yellow color.
Overall, Canva Pro is an incredibly user-friendly AI-powered tool. With its creative applications and accessible features, it’s no wonder why it has become a popular choice for many users.
