Adobe has released version 27.5 of Photoshop, focused on improving the connection with its AI ecosystem. The update establishes a direct bridge with Firefly Boards, the online tool for creating inspiration boards with artificial intelligence. This allows opening cloud files from Photoshop within Boards, editing them, and returning them to the main software. The version also fixes issues with the Clarity and Dehaze effects from previous updates.
Unified workflow between cloud applications 🚀
The technical integration is based on the use of Photoshop cloud documents (PSDC) as the central element. These files, hosted in Creative Cloud, act as a shared resource that both applications can read and modify. When a PSDC is opened in Firefly Boards, an optimized version for its interface is generated. Changes made, such as adding generative elements or annotations, are synchronized back while maintaining editable layers in Photoshop. This approach avoids manual file export and import.
Subscribe today and pay tomorrow (and the day after, and always) 💸
The functionality requires, as usual, an active Photoshop subscription and, to use Firefly's AI, separate generative credits. Adobe perfects the art of everything extra: first you pay for the software, then for the cloud to use it together, and finally for the credits that each idea consumes. It's a system designed so that your creativity flows as freely as your wallet towards their account. At least the bug fixes are included in the base package.
