Adobe launches 70+ tool ChatGPT plugin
Adobe has released a comprehensive ChatGPT plugin that exposes more than 70 creative tools from its apps (Photoshop, Premiere, Express, Acrobat, Firefly, Illustrator, InDesign) inside the ChatGPT interface. The plugin enables tasks such as creating formatted PDFs from uploaded tables, unifying image styles, using editable design templates, and trimming videos for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. ChatGPT selects which Adobe tool to use per request and can transfer projects into Adobe desktop apps for deeper editing. Full functionality requires signing in with an Adobe account and relevant paid subscriptions; a guest sign-in is possible but limited. Adobe says the plugin is intended to speed simple edits and workflows, not to replace its desktop applications.
OpenAI Expands ChatGPT Plugins with App-like Interfaces and Automations
At its Dev Day presentation, OpenAI announced new plugin extensions for ChatGPT, allowing developers to build app-like experiences directly within the chat interface. These extensions will give apps a dedicated home in the ChatGPT sidebar and support interactive panels, including file viewers tailored to developers' products. OpenAI is also introducing a Plugin Creator tool to simplify plugin development and submission, along with improved ranking and recommendation in the plugin directory. Users can approve access needs individually. ChatGPT Sites can host these plugins, enabling sharing with colleagues who can use them with their own connected data. Additionally, OpenAI announced support for the proposed MCP Events specification, allowing plugins to trigger automations based on events in connected apps, making automations easier to add and manage.
OpenAI Unveils Enhanced ChatGPT Images Update
OpenAI released an enhanced ChatGPT Images update that makes edits more precise, speeds up generation by up to four times, and preserves essential details such as lighting, composition, and likeness across edits. The update eliminates the need to reset images and provides concrete prompting tips, with Sam Altman illustrating concepts through examples. The expanded GPT-Image-1.5 model is available in ChatGPT for all users and via API, with costs for creating and editing images reduced by about 20%. A new in-dialog image workspace adds a dedicated area for styles and inspirations, and ChatGPT guides users with prompts to test the improved tool. Adobe’s Power Tools—Photoshop, Express, and Acrobat—are integrated into ChatGPT free at launch, while native Figma integration supports generating diagrams, presentations, and marketing assets from ongoing conversations. OpenAI cautions that multilingual content and very complex scenes may still misrepresent, with current image quality around 70%, underscoring the need for manual review. Access for Business/Enterprise comes later.
