Adobe Illustrator introduces generative AI for vector recoloring and more

After first announcing it in April, Adobe has unveiled the arrival of generative AI in its popular design software, Adobe Illustrator. The new feature, called Generative Recolor (beta), is powered by Adobe Firefly, the company's family of creative generative AI models. With this new capability, users can transform colors in their vector artwork using simple text prompts.

Generative Recolor is designed to create various energizing palettes and themes using everyday language that can transform the look and feel of a design. The feature has been described as magical, as it uses AI to generate color schemes that match the user's preferences and the design's requirements.

The launch of Generative Recolor is just the beginning of Adobe's plan to introduce more generative AI features to Illustrator. These features will enable designers to realize their creative vision more quickly and easily. The company has promised to reveal more details about these features soon.

In addition to Generative Recolor, Adobe is introducing other features to make Illustrator even more user-friendly. These include Retype, which is a font identifier that helps users identify fonts in their designs. The software is also improving its image trace capabilities, layers search, and filters. Furthermore, Adobe is enhancing PDF compatibility and adding the ability to share documents for review.

The new features are expected to be a game changer for designers who use Adobe Illustrator. They will enable designers to create stunning designs with ease and speed. Adobe Illustrator is already known for its powerful tools, and the addition of generative AI will make it even more powerful.
