You can now utilize Adobe's photo and PDF editing features within ChatGPT.

      Photoshop, Acrobat, and Adobe Express are now integrated into ChatGPT

      What’s the news? Your ChatGPT has transformed into a mini editing studio. Adobe has made Photoshop Express and Acrobat tools available for free directly within ChatGPT, enabling users to edit images or manage PDFs without the need to open a separate application. Here’s what you can accomplish within a chat:

      Edit images with Photoshop Express capabilities, including cropping, background removal, retouching, applying filters, and making adjustments.

      Edit and organize PDFs with Acrobat, featuring options to merge documents, add comments, sign files, redact sensitive information, or convert files.

      Receive AI assistance from ChatGPT while you work, such as design ideas, content suggestions, or layout corrections.

      How these tools function within ChatGPT

      Adobe’s tools can be accessed directly in a chat by uploading a file and specifying your desired edits. You might say, “Adobe Photoshop, help me blur the background of this image,” and the application will activate within the ongoing conversation. After starting, you can continue to request modifications.

      Depending on your request, Adobe may display various options for you to choose from or offer small interface controls for you to adjust. For instance, Photoshop Express can provide sliders for brightness, exposure, or contrast, allowing for precise image adjustments right within ChatGPT.

      The Acrobat functionalities in ChatGPT operate similarly, but logging into your Adobe account is necessary to save or export files. Utilizing the tools directly within ChatGPT incurs no cost.

      These tools effectively handle common image edits and document tasks, but for more complicated editing, using the full Adobe applications would still be more advantageous.

      Despite this, this update makes ChatGPT a valuable workspace for individuals who regularly work with documents or images. It condenses workflows that typically require multiple applications into a single chat window, making creative and document work more conversational rather than technical.

      I evaluated job searches using Gemini, ChatGPT, and Grok, and one clearly stood out

      The top chatbot for job searches wasn’t the one I expected

      Currently, the job market is highly competitive, at least according to the World Economic Forum. Recent data from September revealed a nearly 30% drop in new entry-level job postings since 2024. Fortunately, there’s an advantage available, particularly for job seekers relying solely on Indeed and similar job boards.

      Chatbots like Google Gemini, ChatGPT, and Grok are arguably more effective in helping you discover job listings. Their interactive nature allows them to search the web quickly, making them useful as career coaches as well. The main benefit lies in assisting you to explore new job categories and broaden your perspective on unexpected opportunities. A simple prompt like “show me which jobs pay the best right now” is invaluable for job hunters.

      A memory shortage is increasing prices by as much as 15%, and the opportunity to buy affordably is rapidly diminishing.

Recent industry reports from TrendForce indicate that major brands are responding: Dell and Lenovo are reportedly planning substantial price increases for their PC and server lines in order to cope with rising component costs. This follows HP's warning of impending price hikes across its PC and laptop lineup, and AMD has also cautioned about an increase in GPU prices.

      Dell is reportedly considering a 15-20% price hike for many of its servers and PC offerings as early as mid-December.
