Photoshop Now Lives Inside ChatGPT for Instant Editing

Photoshop is now inside ChatGPT. Just prompt what you want and get slider-level control to dial in the perfect look. Intelligently select content and apply effects — without opening Photoshop.

Grateful to be partnering with @Adobe to share what's next for it. We're kicking off a Promptathon with Adobe apps and @ChatGPT — try it now and show me what you create. #AdobePartner
