Are you a clip art aficionado? Or are your PowerPoint slides usually full of words and short on charm?
Whatever your sin, Adobe Firefly is an AI image generation tool with the power to rescue your drab presentations. Never again will your clients or colleagues have to endure a dull slide.
Launched last week, Firefly is free to use and easy to set up - giving it two clear advantages over rival Midjourney.
The algorithm is trained on Adobe’s massive library of stock photos, but produces less cheesy images that are more relevant to your precise needs. Firefly also has a charming style that helps ensure all generated images have a sense of consistency without the need for complex Midjourney-style prompts, although this does mean the platform has less scope for creativity. As an added bonus, it appears to produce output with better gender and ethnic diversity.
Here’s how we like to use Firefly to liven up a presentation:
Take a slide you’ve recently been working on and write a short sentence that describes the key message of that slide as a photo. For example, we’ve recently been working on a slide that advises our attendees to sanitise sensitive data before pasting it into ChatGPT. I might choose the sentence “person in a hazmat suit with a spray bottle cleaning a computer”.
Go to Firefly, click ‘Text-To-Image’ and enter that sentence. Hit ‘Generate’.
Play around with the options on the right and keep re-generating until you find a visual you like. Download and paste into your slides.
If you generate any award-worthy images, be sure to send them our way!

E-mail perfection with ChatGPT
Everyone hates sending emails, right? On average, more than a quarter of our time at work is spent on emails - a relatively low-value task that most of us would like to semi-automate. We’ve all experimented with ChatGPT to draft e-mails for us, but while it is easy to get 50% of the way there, it can be challenging to generate an email that sounds just like you and is ready to send.
