Firefly 5 Generative Fill Is Actually Useful Now — Here's How to Use It Without Making a Mess

I’ll be honest: I’ve been skeptical of Generative Fill since it launched. Not because the technology isn’t impressive, but because the way most people use it creates more cleanup work than it saves. Blown-out edges, AI textures that don’t match the source image, fills baked directly into the pixel layer with no way to walk them back. I’ve seen it in client files. I’ve done it myself in early tests and quietly deleted the results.
