Background
Adobe has acquired Topaz Labs, a company known for using AI to sharpen, denoise, and upscale photos and videos. The deal gives Adobe top-tier AI enhancement tech that could be integrated into apps like Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, and After Effects. Topaz Labs was one of the few independent tools that many professionals preferred over Adobe's own built-in AI features — its removal from the market reduces choice for creators.
