Instead of retrying the same general-purpose editor over and over, the agent picks the right specialized tool for each task and lets a standard language model choose the best result based on measured image data. The approach works, but it needs about ten times the compute.\n\nThe article [Adobe is testing how well AI agents can use editing tools like a Photoshop professional would](https://the-decoder.com/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-professional-would/) appeared first on [The Decoder](https://the-decoder.com).", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-would", "canonical_source": "https://the-decoder.com/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-professional-would/", "published_at": "2026-11-01 14:56:44+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-11-01 15:21:13.459139+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-agents", "ai-research", "generative-ai"], "entities": ["Adobe", "Adobe Research", "UC San Diego", "EditAgent"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-would", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-would.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-would.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/adobe-is-testing-how-well-ai-agents-can-use-editing-tools-like-a-photoshop-would.jsonld"}}
