Most who’ve tried to do professional-level stuff report that it doesn’t really work. When first released, the “developer” said he “one-shotted Photoshop, the whole thing.” Then he back-peddled all the way to, “It’s just an alpha release give us a year.” Now I guess it’s a month again? Whatever. It’s a UI framework with some basic functionality. There are free alternatives created by real developers, which have greater feature parity. Why does everyone want to think this knock-off junk is the nail in Adobe’s coffin when Affinity and Photopea weren’t? (Yes I realize there are other applications in the suite.)
The guy who makes this is also not really great or trustworthy. He enjoys seeing people lose their jobs to AI, and exuberantly telling everyone that AI made him rich, if it didn’t make you rich than you didn’t “dream enough” and are doomed.
For years he’s made bizarre claims like by the end of 2025 AI will kill the entertainment industry, and AI will enable us to upload our brains and colonize the moon. He regularly takes weird, aggressive positions about every day things, like the economic impacts of owning a bicycle and whether or not a woman can ride one while menstruating.
He clearly suffers from delusions of grandeur and AI psychosis, but worse is that a lot of this is just marketing. This Adobe thing is not a benevolent endeavor to democratize software. Its purpose appears to be to bring attention to his token-reselling AI image and video generation service. He also owns FakeYou, a commercial service used to create audio deepfakes and do voice cloning for scams. To me it doesn’t look like he wants to erase Adobe for the good of mankind; rather he wants to usurp and replace them with his own nickel-and-dimed-for-tokens scheme.
