OnePlus is diving into the world of on-device artificial intelligence with the introduction of its new AI Eraser. This new feature—available on the OnePlus 12, 12R, 11, Open, and Nord CE 4—lets users remove unwanted objects from photos using the power of generative AI. Similar to Google's Magic Eraser, AI Eraser analyzes the selected area and intelligently replaces it with a background that seamlessly blends into the rest of the image.

This marks a shift for OnePlus, which previously relied on external tools for AI-powered photo editing. The company's use of a proprietary large language model (LLM) called AndesGPT suggests a commitment to further exploring AI capabilities in its smartphones.
