Adobe collaborates with Google to integrate AI image generation capabilities into Bard

Adobe has announced that Firefly and Express will soon be available on Google’s experimental conversational AI service, Bard. With this integration, users can describe their vision to Bard in their own words to create Firefly-generated images directly in Bard.

The images can also be modified using Express to create engaging social media posts, posters, flyers, and more, with inspiration from a vast collection of templates and assets. Adobe says that Firefly will become the “premier generative AI partner for Bard.”

Adbe has rolled out the latest beta version of Adobe Express at the Adobe Summit EMEA 2023. An all-in-one app, Adobe Express simplifies and enhances the process of designing and sharing social media posts, videos, images, PDFs, flyers, logos, and more. With its integration of Adobe Firefly, a family of creative generative AI models, Express aims to revolutionise content creation for a wide range of users, from creative professionals to students and large enterprises.

The new version of Express combines the power of Adobe’s popular photo, design, video, document, and generative AI tools into a single editor, making tasks such as creating social video content, editing images, and enhancing PDFs faster and easier than ever before. The integration of PDF support into the editor streamlines the import, editing, and enhancement of PDFs, enabling users to create visually stunning documents effortlessly.

A notable addition to Express is the integration of Adobe Firefly, which brings generative AI capabilities directly into the app’s workflows. This empowers creators of all skill levels to generate images and text effects simply by providing text prompts.
