Adobe Integrates With ChatGPT

(Wednesday December 10, 2025 @05:50PM (BeauHD) from the describe-your-edits dept.)


Adobe is [1]integrating Photoshop, Express, and Acrobat directly into ChatGPT so users can edit photos, design graphics, and tweak PDFs through the chatbot. The Verge reports:

> The Adobe apps are free to use, and can be activated by typing the name of the app alongside an uploaded file and conversational instruction, such as "Adobe Photoshop, help me blur the background of this image." ChatGPT users won't have to specify the name of the app again during the same conversation to make additional changes. Depending on the instructions, Adobe's apps may offer a selection of results to choose from, or provide a UI element that the user can manually control -- such as Photoshop sliders for adjusting contrast and brightness.

>

> The ChatGPT apps don't provide the full functionality of Adobe's desktop software. Adobe says the Photoshop app can edit specific sections of images, apply creative effects, and adjust image settings like brightness, contrast and exposure. Acrobat in ChatGPT can edit existing PDFs, compress and convert other documents into a PDF format, extract text or tables, and merge multiple files together.

>

> The Adobe Express app allows ChatGPT users to both generate and edit designs, such as posters, invitations, and social media graphics. Everything in the design can be edited without leaving ChatGPT, from replacing text or images, to altering colors and animating specific sections. If ChatGPT users do want more granular control over a project they started in the chatbot, those photos, PDFs, and designs can be opened directly in Adobe's native apps to pick up where they left off.

The first thing Skynet did was erase all of our dank memes. That was when the AI wars began, and shortly after humanity immediately lost everything.

Honestly? A great use of ChatGPT. 1: ChatGPT will always fail the turing test. Hands down, so using it for this endeavor is a waste. 2: ChatGPT is native to set-in-stone programs (i.e., the opposite of human encounters). You input directions with a crutch of 3rd party software, and the bot gets you where you want.

That's nice Adobe, but why do I need any of your products at all if I can just use a LLM to generate the image I want or make the requested modifications to my existing image directly?

If AI manages to kill this shitty company and their shitty business model, I wouldn't shed a tear. GIMP has gotten surprisingly good over the years while Photoshop has tread water or regressed for completely bullshit reasons.

I think pretty much everyone agrees adobe's products have been terrible and outdated for the last 10-15 years - but it's just amazing how long a company like this can coast if other companies keep paying the subscription fees month after month, year after year.

OTOH I'll bet a lot of companies have finally dropped their adobe subscriptions so they can go all in on AI. Maybe their time is finally up?
