Get ready for a surprise, à la Adobe. Their groundbreaking camera app, Project Indigo, has taken a detour. Launched last year with a promise of a natural, SLR-esque photographic experience, it was tailored specifically for iPhone users. But now an unexpected shift is occurring. Adobe is integrating a host of generative AI tools, a significant veer from the original course. What’s interesting is that these updates do not rely on Adobe’s in-house Firefly AI models. Tricky stuff.
Now, let’s meet the “AI Playground,” as Adobe smugly christens it. Users will find it as an added feature, a whimsical, experimental suite which they can decide to use or not. Essentially this means they’re allowing you to keep using the older form, showing a distinct commitment to choice and flexibility. A chosen few among Indigo users will get a free access to these new tools, and here’s the best part – no sign-ons! Over the course of the next few weeks, users will get this freebie. It’s Adobe’s slick way of seeing how us common folk interact with the new add-ons.
This twist in the plot also brings us back to an old debate: What, truly, makes a photo? As tech plays God, blurring boundaries between real and augmented, Adobe finds itself centre-stage. AI tools in a photography app? That’s a whole new ballgame. It’s time for us — photographers, fanatics, and casual sifters — to re-think what we mean when we say ‘photograph’.
