AI-powered features in digital content creation tools like Midjourney and Photoshop are certainly not new, but it appears that Adobe is now adding more of such features to its software. Today, Adobe announced it is releasing new Firefly tools for Illustrator and Photoshop, offering creative professionals more ways to create and edit using the company’s software.

In a press release, the company notes that Illustrator and Photoshop will feature a number of AI tools and workflow enhancements to speed up routine, time-consuming tasks. One of the most notable features to look forward to in Illustrator is Generative Shape Fill (beta), which gives graphic designers the ability to enter text-based prompts in the Contextual Taskbar to add detailed vectors to shapes.
