OpenAI, Adobe and Canva define AI trends, as AI chips clock in a buying frenzy

Hindustan Times  

We are now into the final week of the year, and this is perhaps as good a time as any, to assess how far ahead we’ve moved in terms of the tech we interface with. “We aren’t building AI models for the sake of it,” Adobe VP Deepa Subramaniam told us, in an interaction. At the same time, their Firefly model is being deployed as a standalone generative AI tool, and also underlines the impressive Generative Extend for video edits and Adaptive Profile for photo edits, both finding a home in Adobe’s apps. But that doesn’t take away from the brilliance of the Magic Studio overhaul followed by the Dream Lab generative AI layer, a fruit borne from the Leonardo acquisition. Cameron Adams, who is Canva’s co-founder and Chief Product Officer told us that most of the cutting edge tools in the suite, use AI that’s built in-house.
