When AI assistants not only understand your needs but also directly call Photoshop for photo editing and one-click poster generation, professional design is becoming more "verbal" than ever before. At the 2025 Adobe MAX conference, Adobe announced a deep integration with OpenAI: Photoshop and Adobe Express have officially integrated with ChatGPT. Users just need to describe their requirements in a conversation, and they can complete the entire workflow of image generation, editing, and exporting—without opening design software or mastering professional terminology.

One-Sentence Photo Editing: GPT Becomes Your AI Designer

Now, users can directly call Adobe applications by clicking the "More" menu in the ChatGPT interface. Under the new "Extension Mode," you just need to input something like "Replace the background of this photo with a sunset beach and brighten the person a bit" or "Generate a tech-savvy AI conference flyer," and the system will automatically call Adobe Express to generate a draft. It also supports adjusting parameters directly within ChatGPT, such as changing the tone, replacing fonts, or scaling elements—all without repeating instructions.

The key point is that all generated content can be exported with one click to Adobe Express or Photoshop for further detailed creation, truly realizing an efficient collaboration workflow of "AI foundation + human refinement."

No Copyright Worries: Firefly Remains Adobe's "Safe Foundation"

Although it has integrated with ChatGPT, Adobe emphasized that its core generation capability still relies on its self-developed Firefly series model. Vice President Alexandru Costin clearly stated that all content generated through Adobe tools comes with commercial usage rights and copyright protection, avoiding users falling into potential copyright disputes with third-party models. This means that even when using Adobe functions through ChatGPT, the underlying operations still run on a secure and compliant Firefly ecosystem.

Photoshop Now Has Its Own AI Assistant, Repeating Tasks Can Be Automated with One Click

At the same time, Adobe also introduced a new AI assistant feature for Photoshop, supporting the execution of repetitive tasks such as batch photo editing, layer organization, and color correction through natural language. Combined with the newly released Firefly Image5 model—which can natively generate high-resolution images of 4 million pixels and support layered prompt editing—Photoshop is evolving from a "professional tool" into a "smart creative partner."

The Future of AI + Creativity: Conversation as Creation

This collaboration is not just about technical integration, but also a shift in creative paradigms. When design no longer depends on mice and shortcuts, but begins with a natural language, the boundaries of creativity will open up to hundreds of millions of non-professional users. Adobe's partnership with OpenAI is bringing the vision of "everyone is a creator" closer to reality.

In the future, perhaps you just need to say to your phone: "Help me turn this travel photo into a postcard style, add a message 'I miss you'." A beautiful work will be automatically generated—everything happens in your daily conversation with GPT.
