Researchers have introduced PhotoAgent, a novel system designed to automate image editing tasks by employing explicit aesthetic planning. This system frames autonomous image editing as a long-horizon decision-making problem, enabling it to interpret user aesthetic intentions and plan multi-step editing actions through tree search. PhotoAgent iteratively refines results using closed-loop execution with memory and visual feedback, eliminating the need for step-by-step user prompts. To facilitate evaluation, the team developed the UGC-Edit benchmark, comprising 7,000 photos and a learned aesthetic reward model, alongside a test set of 1,017 photos to assess autonomous editing performance.
