Apple vs. Adobe: How does iOS 27’s AI photo editing compare to Photoshop?

I’ve been using Photoshop’s generative AI features to remove unwanted objects and extend photos since Adobe introduced them in 2023. They’ve been hit or miss for me, but they’re certainly a lot faster than the old-fashioned approach of masking, cloning, and manually painting things out. But with iOS 27, Apple has significantly improved its Clean Up tool and introduced the new Extend tool, and I was curious to see how Apple’s offerings compare with Adobe’s. So, with the help of a friend, I put both to the test using a variety of photos to see how they stack up.
