Personally its great to someone put AI to good use. It probably won't dethrone Adobe but this might be a good free alternative that will work for many.

Sure

Glad it exists, but if the broken entry animation of the landing page is anything to go by I'm not very hopeful as to the quality of the user experience.

It looks fine to me.

This exists because there is a thing to copy, and that's all I've seen so far: copy this, copy that, but now it's in rust as if that could possibly matter.

This is how we take back power guys. Corporations have stolen from us, now we steal from them.

I highly agree. Sadly, all of this ends up running on high-end machines + other corporations servers.

If you’re talking about the AI models, yes, for now. However the adversarial nature of US vs China is in our favour, it puts better and cheaper models in our hands. We absolutely must not allow Chinese models to be banned or restricted. That’s exactly what they’ll attempt to restore the power imbalance.

Their acrobat equivalent is looking pretty good. Thats going to save me hundreds every year.

Someone please bundle this with nice linux distro and even MacOS is done

If this is possible, my career as a programmer is now trash. F--- AI.

Just switch from a programmer to a software developer. Don’t compete with AI, use it.

Yes, all I have to do is show them all my intellectual property and let them upload it to their servers, and they will "help" me, and then mysteriously be able to tell others how to duplicate two years of my work in 45 minutes.

- i ll be impressed if you can build windows 12 from scratch that runs 10 times faster than windows 11 with 0 bloat

- wake me up when you find an AI model capable of that kinda feat

Another day, another Adobe Creative Suite clone.
