Photoshop in ChatGPT Fixes a Big AI Image Editing Pet Peeve

Adobe Express, Acrobat and Photoshop are now available in ChatGPT, no subscription required.

Three Adobe apps — Photoshop, Adobe Express and Acrobat — are coming to ChatGPT, the company announced on Wednesday. The integration means anyone can edit their photos in the chatbot using the editing tools native to Adobe’s apps, no ChatGPT or Adobe subscription required.

The Adobe apps in ChatGPT will feel familiar to anyone who has used them before: Photoshop can edit your photos, Express can create graphic designs and Acrobat can manage your PDFs. You can simply add the name of the Adobe app you want to use at the beginning of your prompt, bolded, to begin using the apps.

These apps are aimed at ChatGPT (not Photoshop) users. While the Adobe apps in ChatGPT will give you more editing firepower, they won’t have the range or granular level of controls that, say, the regular version of Photoshop has — something that professional creators want and need. It’s likely going to be most useful for people who are already creating in ChatGPT and want to level up their work. While reviewing OpenAI’s AI image generator in ChatGPT, I found it was fine for quick mock-ups but lacked essential creative controls. Using Photoshop fixes that.

(Disclosure: Ziff Davis, CNET’s parent company, in April filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.)

When you edit photos with Photoshop in ChatGPT, you will see a small pop-up window; sliders will appear in the upper-right corner. This is where the hands-on control comes in. You can manually adjust those sliders to edit your photo. If you ask Photoshop to brighten a photo, for example, it will provide sliders to adjust the exposure. You can also apply visual effects, like glitch or glow, to your photos.

Adobe Express, the company’s Canva competitor, can be used to create editable designs, such as flyers, invitations and posters. Acrobat in ChatGPT should be able to preserve your PDF’s formatting while editing, combining or otherwise maneuvering your documents.

When you use the Adobe apps in ChatGPT, Adobe’s software is ultimately the one that’s running the show to edit your photos or create your documents. ChatGPT is simply the interface or platform you can use to access them. ChatGPT isn’t entirely regenerating your photos; it’s editing them as you would in Photoshop.

Adobe has been heavily focused on generative AI over the past few years. Most recently, it announced it was adding AI chatbot-like assistants to the regular versions of Express (out now) and Photoshop (still in beta). It also teased its latest AI image model, Firefly Image Model 5, at Adobe Max, its annual creative conference. AI audio is also a growing area, as the company released new AI tools to generate soundtracks and dialogue.
