Adobe just turned creativity into conversation
The creative economy is getting a major facelift: Adobe just transformed its entire suite into a conversational AI ecosystem with multi-model choice, while Character.ai (yikes) is restricting teen chatbot access due to safety concerns and regulatory pressure. Meanwhile, the bigger picture is becoming crystal clear—language models aren't replacing creativity, they're fundamentally shifting how we work, compressing and remixing text in ways that blur the line between tool and collaborator. Wild stuff. But here's the thing: Adobe's betting big on AI-powered creation while Character.ai faces the safety reckoning. So the real question is... are you building the tool or bracing for the backlash?
