Adobe adds AI video tools and chatbot access to Creative Cloud apps
At its MAX event in Miami, Adobe announced new AI features across its creative apps.
The updates include a Firefly video editor that can help assemble clips and other elements, and an assistant that can handle some editing tasks.
Adobe says the tools aim to help people create and edit video, including users without years of experience.
Photoshop, Premiere and Lightroom are also getting features such as image relighting, video object removal and photo retouching.
Adobe is releasing a Model Context Protocol for Creative Cloud apps, which lets chatbots such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini access some Adobe features.
The company says it is still deciding which capabilities to make available and will use feedback to guide that work.
The new tools extend Adobe’s push to build AI into its products and make more creative tasks accessible through AI.
