CyberLink Introduces GenAI Studio 2.0, Revolutionizing Creativity in Director Suite
The launch of CyberLink’s GenAI Studio 2.0 in PhotoDirector marks a significant leap forward in creativity and innovation as CyberLink continues to enhance its product suite by offering over 30 AI-powered features across PhotoDirector, PowerDirector and Promeo. The new GenAI Studio 2.0 upgrade, set to debut this month, focuses on delivering a more simplified and controllable AI experience, designed to streamline workflows and empower users with limitless creative freedom.

As part of GenAI Studio 2.0, CyberLink has introduced multiple ways for users to interact with AI, addressing a common pain point in generative AI usage—effective prompt creation. Within PhotoDirector, these new communication modes include "image to image," "text+image to image," and "image+image to image" generation, and offer users greater flexibility and precision in content creation, ensuring the AI better understands and meets their needs.
Key features of GenAI Studio 2.0 include:
Text to Image + Reference Image: Users can generate content by providing a reference image with defined faces, poses, styles, and compositions.
AI Image Fusion: Allows users to seamlessly merge and blend multiple images, resulting in more diverse visual effects.
AI Face Swap: Powered by CyberLink’s industry-leading facial recognition technology, this feature enables high-quality face replacement in images with enhanced accuracy and stability.
In addition, PhotoDirector allows you to directly edit these AI generations with precise and powerful AI editing tools, like inpainting and outpainting, within the new GenAI Studio 2.0.
Looking ahead, CyberLink will further strengthen its flagship product, PowerDirector 365, with new AI-driven features for video and audio editing. These upcoming features include Text-Based AI Video Editing, which uses AI to generate an editable text transcript that can be used for faster video editing, and AI Music Generator, designed to enhance video production efficiency by generating custom music tracks.
The PowerDirector mobile app introduces the new AI Video Upscaler, allowing users to enhance video quality with a single tap. While the PhotoDirector mobile app has upgraded its Object Removal feature to automatically detect and remove unwanted elements, such as power lines and other distractions.
