Adobe Testing Well AI
The interesting part here is the architecture, not the pixels: routing a request to the right specialized tool beats hammering one general-purpose model, a pattern we'll likely see repeated across agentic systems. The 10x compute overhead is the price of that orchestration — a reminder that "agent" very often still means "more tokens." Worth noting that Adobe is quietly accumulating exactly the kind of research that could slot straight into Photoshop, and it has the most to gain from making pro tools self-operating.… more
As a prototype this is modest news, but treating measured image data as the judge of results is, in our view, the right direction.
Adobe is testing how well AI agents can use editing tools like a Photoshop professional would
Adobe Research and UC San Diego built EditAgent, an AI system that edits images more like a Photoshop pro. Instead of retrying the same general-purpose editor over and over, the agent picks the right specialized tool for each task and lets a standard lang…
