Text Generation, Support Text Along a Path

The Text Generation is a fantastic tool that doesn't exist outside of Adobe.  Incorporating text into images generated in the most popular models/tools is challenging.  There is one thing that I constantly find myself wishing that I could do.  That is to generate AI Text that follows a path or is otherwise not straight.  Even implementing a simple way to shape the text, such as a semi-circle, a wave/sign-curve, etc., would open up a world of uses in Adobe Express/social media/Photoshop.

This is a great idea! @Madkrupt is what @Myra Ferguson suggesting similar to what you would like to see done directly in Firefly?

Or you could use Firefly to generate the image of the text, download it, and use Illustrator to trace the text (Window > Image Trace) and then warp (Effect > Warp > Arc) the traced text. Here's an example where you can see the traced donut with sprinkles text created with Firefly placed in Illustrator, traced, and set a warp effect that has a 75% Bend:

I suppose you could generate text effects from a prompt to create the glyphs, use a third-party premium tool such as Font Self to create a font from the generated characters in either Illustrator or Photoshop, and then use the respective type on a path options for Photoshop or Illustrator.
