Adobe rolls out more generative AI features to Illustrator and Photoshop
It could revolutionize creative workflows, blending advanced technology with user-friendly tools.
With designers complaining about wanting a faster creative process, Adobe seems to have heard the collective sighs and is rolling out some exciting new generative AI features for Illustrator and Photoshop.
This update integrates AI in a way that supports and amplifies human creativity, rather than replacing it. The company's latest Firefly Vector AI model is at the heart of these enhancements, promising to significantly accelerate creative workflows for graphic designers, fashion designers, interior designers or professional creatives.
It brings new tools like the Generative Shape Fill, so you can add detailed vectors to shapes using just a few descriptive words. Another is a Text to Pattern feature, which enables the creation of customizable, scalable vector patterns.

The update also brings a new Dimension tool to Illustrator that automatically adds sizing information to your projects, and a Mockup feature that helps you visualize your designs on real-life objects. Retype is another nifty tool that converts static text in images into editable text.

Meanwhile, Photoshop is not left out of the AI-powered upgrades. It also gets new intuitive features like the Generate Image feature, powered by the new Firefly Image 3 Model. Additionally, the Enhance Detail feature for Generative Fill has been improved to provide greater sharpness and detail for large images. Moreover, the new Selection Brush tool simplifies the process of selecting specific objects for editing.

These latest advancements mark another significant step in Adobe's integration of generative AI into its creative suite. Since the launch of the first Firefly model in March 2023, Adobe has generated over 9 billion images with these tools, and that number is only expected to go up.
The update with the latest Firefly Vector model is now available in public beta, and as Adobe continues to push the boundaries of what's possible with AI in design, we can expect even more innovative features and updates.
