Free trial makes one see just how bad adobe firefly is in comparison to "peers"

Being able to compare all the major models to Firefly ie image and Video generation one sees just how behind and primitive Adobe Firefly is. Same or roughly the same prompts on Firefly and Veo for example yield ridiculous and useless results on Firefly. At least this promo has showed that there are much better options on other apps. To use generative AI as anything other than a novelty item takes a lot of learning and discipline. Adobe Firefly is useless and maddening producing so much unusable garbage. Also as an aside the guidlines have flagged and refused to generate the most ridiculous things. How did the largest image and video software in the world make such a useless product? Do better. Also if you want to make your product ultimately useful you need to make an unlimited flat rate option or at least a "relaxed rate" like Runway and others have. Maybe it's my prompts but they seem to work on the other models.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience with Firefly hasn’t met your expectations. Firefly continues to evolve, and improving image and video generation quality, especially with complex, high-detail prompts, is an active area of development. Your feedback about prompt sensitivity, content guidelines, and generation consistency is extremely valuable and will be shared with the product team. If you’re open to it, we’d love to take a look at some of the prompts that worked well in other tools but not in Firefly. That would help us identify what may be causing the unexpected results and improve prompt handling going forward.

 

 

Let us know. 

Thanks,
