Adobe MAX Sneaks showcases AI tools for creative expression
Sneaks combines experimental technology with community feedback to shape the future of creative tools.
Adobe MAX Sneaks offered a glimpse into the company’s latest experimental technologies, where AI and creative tools intersect. Hosted by comedian and actress Jessica Williams, the event showcased how innovation is making creative work faster, more intuitive, and more engaging.
Highlights included Project Surface Swap for changing photo textures and Project Light Touch for adjusting lighting after capture. Other tools, such as Project Turn Style and Project Trace Erase, give creators greater control over 2D and 3D objects, enabling natural edits and dynamic storytelling.
Video and motion design also played a prominent role. Project Frame Forward enables creators to apply edits across entire videos from a single annotated frame, while Project Motion Map automatically animates static illustrations.
In sound, Project Sound Stager generates layered soundscapes based on video content, and Project Clean Take quickly refines dialogue for studio-quality audio.
Sneaks emphasises experimentation and community feedback, giving developers and artists a chance to explore bold ideas that could shape the next generation of creative tools. Many showcased projects could become key features, changing how creators work with images, video, and sound.
