OnePlus has confirmed that its new AI Eraser feature will be coming to select devices this month.
Powered by the OnePlus proprietary large language model, AI Eraser allows users to select and remove unwanted objects within images in their Photo Gallery. It will presumably work like Google’s Magic Eraser feature in its select smartphones and Object Eraser on Samsung Galaxy devices.
The features uses AI and advanced algorithms to allow you to highlight an object in a photo, like a pedestrian walking by in the background or an imperfection, and have it removed. The phone will intelligent analyze the selected area and automatically generate a replacement background that seamlessly blends into the surrounding environment.
The proprietary LLM used for AI Eraser has been trained on a vast dataset that allows it to comprehend complex scenes. Through this advanced visual understanding, AI Eraser can intelligently substitute unwanted objects with contextually appropriate elements that naturally elevate the photo’s appeal.
Kinder Liu, President and COO of OnePlus, says he believes that the “potential for generative AI on mobile devices is enormous, with the power to completely transform productivity and creativity.
“As OnePlus’ first feature based on generative AI technology,” he continues, “AI Eraser represents the first step in our vision to liberate user creativity through AI and revolutionize the future of photo editing, empowering users to create remarkable photos with just a few touches.
Liu says OnePlus plans to introduce more AI features this year.
“Greater convenience and efficiency driven by the fusion of AI and smartphones will empower people to spend more time doing the things they love,” adds Nicole Zhang, General Manager of AI Product at OnePlus. “All OnePlus AI features are built from genuine user needs, and we will continue to invest heavily in developing more revolutionary AI-based features that move us closer to our vision for a more convenient future for all.”
Starting this month, AI Eraser will be rolled out gradually to OnePlus devices including the OnePlus 12, OnePlus 12R, OnePlus 11, OnePlus Open, and OnePlus Nord CE 4.
