Adobe stock fell 1.7% after Google unveiled enhanced image editing capabilities for its Gemini app, potentially threatening Adobe's dominance in the digital imaging market. The upgraded Gemini app introduces advanced features that compete directly with Adobe's core editing products like Photoshop, which has long been the industry standard for professional image manipulation.
Adobe (NASDAQ:ADBE) stock declined 1.7% on Tuesday following Google's announcement of significant upgrades to its Gemini app's image editing capabilities. The new features, which Google described as "the top-rated image editing model in the world," have the potential to challenge Adobe's dominance in the digital imaging market [1].Google's Gemini app now offers advanced features such as maintaining consistent subject likeness across edits, placing users or pets in different scenarios, blending multiple photos, performing multi-turn editing, and applying design styles from one image to another [2]. These capabilities directly compete with Adobe's core editing products like Photoshop, which has long been the industry standard for professional image manipulation.
The market reaction suggests investors are concerned about the potential competitive pressure on Adobe's creative software business, which has been facing increasing competition from AI-powered alternatives in recent months [3]. Google's free offering could appeal to casual users who might otherwise consider Adobe's subscription-based software.
All images created or edited in the Gemini app will include both visible watermarks and invisible SynthID digital watermarks to identify them as AI-generated content, according to Google's announcement. This move aims to address concerns about the authenticity and origin of AI-generated images.
