Apr 18, 2024 9:00 am

Welcome back to 3D News, the newsletter for digital artists. Every week, I handpick the best links to ensure you stay ahead in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Generative AI in Premiere Pro powered by Adobe Firefly

Adobe has unveiled the integration of its generative AI technology, Adobe Firefly, into Premiere Pro, marking a significant advancement in video editing. This update introduces features such as Object Addition, Object Removal, and Generative Extend. The video also highlights integrations with OpenAI, Runway, and Pika Labs, showcasing a robust platform for various editing tasks.

Why it matters: Generative AI video is certainly on the horizon. Much like Adobe's earlier integration of Generative Fill in Photoshop, the consolidation of AI tools into Premiere Pro addresses the fragmented workflow many users of AI tools currently navigate. This integration not only brings amazing new capabilities; it promises to create a seamless, convenient editing experience.

What I am Doing About AI

As we approach the "Coming Wave of AI," one crucial activity I’m engaging in is learning. A great way to stay informed is by delving into the top books on any subject. Recently, I've been listening to pivotal titles like Life 3.0, The Age of AI, and The Coming Wave on Audible. For those new to this platform, Audible offers a month-long trial that you can start here. I find listening especially beneficial as it allows me to learn while walking, working, exercising, or even doing housework, effectively making it 'no extra time' learning. This contrasts with sitting down to read, which requires undivided attention.

Why it matters: In an era where AI is rapidly transforming our landscape, staying updated through continuous learning is more important than ever. Audible makes this easy by integrating learning seamlessly into your daily routine, allowing you to stay ahead in the knowledge game without sacrificing your other activities.
