Adobe’s new Firefly AI Assistant wants to run Photoshop, Premiere, Illustrator and more from one prompt

The announcements, which also include a new Color Mode for Premiere Pro, the addition of Kling 3.0 video models to Firefly's growing roster of third-party AI engines, and Frame.io Drive — a virtual filesystem that lets distributed teams work with cloud-stored media as though it lived on their local machines — represent Adobe's clearest signal yet that it views agentic AI not as a feature upgrade but as a fundamental reshaping of how creative work gets done.

Microsoft launches MAI-Image-2-Efficient, a cheaper and faster AI image model

The new model is priced at $5 per million text input tokens and $19.50 per million image output tokens, a roughly 41% reduction from MAI-Image-2's pricing of $5 and $33, respectively, for those same tiers. Microsoft says the model runs 22% faster than its flagship sibling and achieves 4x greater throughput efficiency per GPU, as measured on NVIDIA H100 hardware at 1024×1024 resolution. The company also claims it outpaces competing hyperscaler models — specifically naming Google's Gemini 3.1 Flash, Gemini 3.1 Flash Image, and Gemini 3 Pro Image — by an average of 40% on p50 latency benchmarks.
