AI-powered creation and processing: Adobe launches web version of Photoshop with popular Firefly tools

Adobe has announced the launch of the web version of Adobe Photoshop, a simplified online version of its proprietary desktop application for photo editing.
The web version of Photoshop has been in beta status for almost two years, and is now available as part of all paid Photoshop plans (from $10 per month).
The online editor launches with the popular Generative Fill and Generative Expand tools, which recently debuted on the desktop version of Photoshop. These features are based on Adobe Firefly’s generative AI model and are available for commercial use. They allow you to add, remove or expand content from any image with text descriptions in over 100 languages, while maintaining the lighting conditions and perspective of the original image.
The web version of Photoshop offers a simplified user interface, including a contextual taskbar, allowing you to invite other users to collaborate on projects.
Adobe has previously noted that it hopes to offer a free version of the service that provides most of Photoshop’s core features. However, Adobe senior vice president of digital media Ashley Still has now told reporters that Adobe currently has “no plans to create a freemium offering.”
