What's New and Exciting
At Adobe, development never stops! Here is just a sampling of new and/or beta features we're working on.
Coming soon! Generative AI to video with Adobe Firefly Video Model
It seems like only yesterday, people were marvelling at the capabilities of Generative Fill and Generative Expand in Firefly and Photoshop. Well, as Ashley Still (General Manager, Adobe Creative Cloud), said in her September 11 blog post, "...video is the currency of engagement today..."
Over the last few months, we have collaborated closely with the video editing community to improve the Firefly Video Model. Based on their feedback and with creators’ rights as a priority, we are developing new workflows using the model to assist editors in brainstorming and enhancing their creative vision, filling gaps in timelines, and incorporating new elements into existing footage.
Similar to our other Firefly generative AI models, editors can be assured that the Adobe Firefly Video Model is designed to be commercially safe and only trained on content we are authorized to use — never on Adobe users' content.
Visit Ashley's blog post for more information and some fascinating sneak peeks!

Text to Image generation in InDesign
New in July 2024
Generative Expand intelligently fills in missing areas when you resize images. It analyzes surrounding pixels to seamlessly extend backgrounds or objects, saving you time by automating complex edits. Generative Expand is available in the current release of InDesign as a beta feature.
The current release of InDesign integrates Firefly into the design workflow. Users can generate graphics in photo and art formats using the same Firefly workflow with the Text to Image panel or new Contextual Taskbar.
