Adobe launches AI assistants for Express and Photoshop: What’s new?

Adobe has officially launched AI assistants for Express and Photoshop, redefining how creators approach design and photo editing. The new tools bring conversational AI directly into Adobe’s creative suite, allowing users to generate designs, edit layers, and complete tasks using natural text prompts. Whether you’re a student creating a quick graphic or a professional editing detailed compositions, Adobe’s AI assistants simplify complex workflows and boost productivity.

How Adobe’s AI assistants transform Express and Photoshop

For Adobe Express, the company introduced a new “assistant mode” that lets users describe what they want in plain language — such as “design a poster for a music event” — and instantly generate results. This mode blends text-based creativity with Express’s robust editing tools, helping users seamlessly move between AI-guided creation and manual adjustments.
Meanwhile, Photoshop’s AI assistant, currently in closed beta, integrates directly into the sidebar. It understands layers, can auto-select objects, create masks, and even remove backgrounds or adjust colors — all through simple prompts. The result is faster, smarter image editing that reduces repetitive work.

Why Adobe is betting big on generative AI

According to Adobe’s VP of Generative AI, Alexandru Costin, the goal is to make creative work more intuitive and accessible. By allowing users to “talk” to their tools, Adobe aims to bridge the gap between imagination and execution. The company believes this dual-mode setup — where users can switch between prompt-based creation and traditional editing — will appeal to both new users and professionals who value control and precision.
