TLDRIn this video, the host reviews Adobe Express's GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) to assess its utility within the Adobe interface. The review compares it to other GPTs, such as Canva's, and finds that Adobe's version is limited to a search directory of pre-existing templates rather than allowing for full design customization within the chat interface. The host attempts to design a logo and a flyer but encounters limitations, such as the inability to add custom text or images directly through the chat. The video concludes that while Adobe's GPT is a step in the right direction, it is currently more of a template search engine than a robust design tool. The host also mentions that Adobe's GPT is free to use, albeit requiring a subscription for full access. The video ends with an invitation to explore more about GPTs through a dedicated playlist.

Takeaways

  • 🔍 Adobe Express has released a new feature called 'gbt' in their store, which is being reviewed for its effectiveness and potential to drive traffic to Adobe's site.
  • 💰 To access the full functionality of Adobe's 'gbt', users need to pay $20 a month to become a Creative Cloud user, although the 'chat gbt' is currently free.
  • 🌟 The reviewer has previously reviewed other 'gbts' such as Canva's, noting limitations in certain contexts.
  • 🚀 The goal is to test if Adobe's 'gbt' can create an entire poster within the 'gbt' interface, which would be a powerful feature.
  • 📉 Initial tests show that Adobe's 'gbt' does not allow for creating custom text within the 'gbt' interface, which is a limitation.
  • 📚 The 'gbt' seems to function more as a search directory for Adobe's existing templates rather than a full design tool within the interface.
  • 🔗 When specific design requests are made, the 'gbt' directs users to Adobe's interface for further editing, indicating a reliance on Adobe's software for detailed work.
  • 🏈 There's a cultural note where the term 'football' is clarified as 'American football' to avoid confusion with soccer, showing the platform's international reach.
  • 🚫 The 'gbt' has limitations in terms of customization and direct design manipulation, which may be due to legal or strategic reasons to drive users to Adobe's website.
  • 📈 Users can still use the 'gbt' to quickly find and save templates that match their needs, although with less flexibility than hoped.
  • 📝 The reviewer provides a candid assessment, stating that while the 'gbt' is functional, it is limited and not the best they have seen.

Q & A

  • What is the purpose of the video?

    -The user expresses skepticism and finds the current capabilities to be limited, comparing it to their experience with Canva's GPT, which also had limitations in certain contexts.

  • What is the user's primary use for Adobe software?

    -The user primarily uses Adobe software for Photoshop to create thumbnails and other graphic design elements for the software they are developing.

  • What is the user's opinion on the Adobe Express GPT after testing it?

    -The user is not impressed with Adobe Express GPT, stating it is limited and more of a search directory for Adobe's templates rather than a powerful design tool within the Chat GPT interface.

  • What is the user's suggestion for the future of GPT technology in design?

    -The user suggests that for GPT technology to be more powerful in design, it should allow users to create designs directly within the Chat GPT interface with more customization options.

  • What is the user's recommendation for those interested in GPT technology?

    -The user recommends checking out the playlist at the end of the video, which covers everything about GPTs, including creating one's own GPT or exploring other GPTs.

  • How does the user describe the current state of Adobe's GPT in relation to other GPTs they have reviewed?

    -The user describes Adobe's GPT as not the best they have seen, and they are brutally honest about its limitations, emphasizing that it is currently more of a template search engine.

  • What is the user's final verdict on Adobe's GPT after the review?

    -The final verdict is that while Adobe's GPT is functional, it is quite limited and does not live up to the expectations of being a powerful design tool within the Chat GPT interface.

  • What does the user suggest as a step in the right direction for GPT technology?

    -The user suggests that making GPT technology more public and accessible, such as allowing access through an incognito tab without needing a subscription, is a step in the right direction.

  • What is the user's advice for someone who is confused about why Adobe's GPT is not working as expected?

    -The user advises that it's not that Adobe's GPT is not working, but rather it is just limited in its capabilities, which might be due to legal implications or Adobe's incentive to drive traffic to their website.
