ALIBABA'S QWEN RELEASES AI MODEL THAT SPLITS IMAGES INTO EDITABLE LAYERS LIKE PHOTOSHOP

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Alibaba's Qwen has released an AI model that automatically splits images into separate editable layers with transparent backgrounds, similar to Photoshop's layer system. The model allows users to independently resize, reposition, recolor, or replace individual elements, such as backgrounds, people, or objects, across 3 or 8 layers. Code and demos are available on GitHub, Hugging Face, and ModelScope for testing.
