Adobe announced more agentic AI features for its Creative Cloud apps this week, allowing users to edit images and documents by describing the changes to a chatbot. A native AI-assistant is now available in public beta for Photoshop on web and mobile, and some Adobe apps, including Acrobat and Express, will soon be available to access directly within Microsoft’s Copilot service.
The AI Assistant in Photoshop for web and mobile was introduced in a private beta in October, but now more people can use it to remove distractions, change backgrounds, refine lighting, adjust color, and more. This follows Adobe launching similar AI assistants for Express and Acrobat. The chatbot-like interface isn’t available for the full Photoshop desktop app yet, but that’s likely still coming, given that Adobe teased in April last year that AI agents are being developed for Photoshop and Premiere Pro.
“With AI Assistant in Photoshop you can choose to have AI Assistant apply edits automatically or guide you step by step so you can learn along the way,” Adobe said in its press release. “In the Photoshop app, you can use your voice to request edits you want to see, making editing on the go simple.”
If you don’t want to edit your work with Creative Cloud apps via Adobe’s chatbots, the company is hoping you’ll access its tools through other AI assistants instead. Adobe says that Express and Acrobat will soon be available to Copilot 365 enterprise customers, allowing them to make conversational adjustments without leaving Microsoft’s AI platform. Similar support for Photoshop, Acrobat, and Express was introduced to ChatGPT in December.
