Adobe will continue its adoption of artificial intelligence with a new generative AI-powered video creation and editing tool coming “later this year”. In what the company described on Wednesday (Sep, 11) as being “a new era of video editing” the upcoming Firefly Video Model will be available in beta and is said to have been “designed to be commercially safe.” “At Adobe, we’re leveraging the power of AI to help editors expand their creative toolset so they can work in these other disciplines, delivering high-quality results on the timelines their clients require,” the team writes in their announcement. The generative AI will help with common editorial tasks like gaps in footage, removing unwanted objects from a scene, smoothing jump cut transitions, and generating b-roll. Adobe’s AI Firefly Video Model can generate videos from image prompts The AI video tool will be able to create new videos in under two minutes through text prompts and reference images can even be added to gain greater control. “With the Firefly Video Model you can leverage rich camera controls, like angle, motion and zoom to create the perfect perspective on your generated video.” The tool is said to be able to support a variety of use cases including creative atmospheric elements like fire, smoke, dust particles, and water against a black or green background.

Sony has just revealed the pricey, yet powerful PS5 Pro, which aims to provide gamers with even more oomph for their playthroughs in both new and old ‘Enhanced’ games. While the tech giant is touting this new hardware as their “most advanced and innovative console hardware to date”, boasting “45% faster rendering for gameplay”, there’s some bad news for those hoping to get a silky smooth GTA 6 experience, with new reports stating that the Pro will struggle to surpass 30 FPS. This news comes from an IGN interview with gaming technical analysis guru Digital Foundry, who is implying that it would be an unreal expectation to see GTA 6 running at 60 FPS on the PS5 Pro. While you might think that this is blasphemy based on the vast improvements to the console’s GPU, for example, Digital Foundry suggests that there’s one issue that will plague higher frame rates – the CPU. “The PS5 Pro uses the same CPU as the PS5” and it would be very difficult “to hit 60fps if the base PS5 version is targeting 30fps” states Richard Leadbetter, technology editor at Digital Foundry. This is mainly due to GTA titles having “complex simulations that push the CPU hard,” and due to the CPU being four-year-old tech even now, it will be working overtime when the official GTA 6 release date arrives. Leadbetter goes on to say that “every GTA game has initially launched on their target platforms at 30fps”.
