Summary
Adobe used its MAX event in Miami to roll out new AI features across Photoshop, Premiere, Illustrator and InDesign, while opening more Creative Cloud functions to external chatbots through a new local Model Context Protocol.
Firefly is central to the push: Adobe added a proactive always-on creative agent, an AI video assembly tool, on-brand graph creation and Builder, a private-beta prototyping feature that pushes further into Figma’s territory.
Photoshop gains relighting and prompt-style sliders; Premiere adds pro color grading and object removal for video; Lightroom gets blink correction and blemish removal, extending Adobe’s recent AI buildout across its apps.
Adobe said the MCP will initially expose selected endpoints across apps including Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects and Premiere, with broader access shaped by user feedback rather than hard limits.
The launch also deepens Adobe’s multi-model strategy, adding Topaz Labs’ 2 image models alongside existing third-party options from OpenAI, Google, Runway, ElevenLabs, ByteDance and others.
