Good morning! Itâs April 10, 2025. Weâve got some exciting AI news today: Photoshop is launching an AI agent, Google revealed its powerful new AI inference chip, and Claude just introduced a $200/month subscription tier. Letâs get into itđ

1. Adobe Brings AI Agents to Photoshop & Premiere Pro â Your Creative Assistant Just Got Smarter
Adobe is giving its creative tools a serious upgrade by adding AI agentsâsmart assistants that donât just suggest edits, but actually do the work for you. In Photoshop, the new Action Panel will let you use everyday language to make complex edits in one clickâthink: âremove background distractionsâ or âbrighten the sky.â Premiere Pro is getting agents that can sift through footage and build a rough cut for you, saving hours of work. This shift to agentic AI means Adobe apps arenât just smartâtheyâre about to become active collaborators in your workflow.

2. This AI Chip Uses Light, Not Electricity â And It Could Slash Energy Costs
A startup called Lightmatter just unveiled a game-changing AI chip that computes using beams of light instead of electricity. This new tech, called the Envise chip, could speed up AI while using far less energyâa huge deal given AIâs skyrocketing power demands. Unlike traditional chips packed with tiny electrical switches, Lightmatterâs chip steers light beams to crunch data. Even better, it can handle complex AI tasks without losing precision, something past âphotonicâ chips struggled with. Itâs not mainstream yet, but this could be the future of faster, greener computing.

3. Google Launches âIronwoodâ â Its Most Powerful AI Chip Yet for the Age of Thinking Machines
At Google Cloud Next, Google unveiled Ironwood, its most powerful and energy-efficient AI chip to date â designed specifically for inference, not just training. Built to handle the insane demands of large thinking models like Gemini and AlphaFold, Ironwood supports up to 9,216 liquid-cooled chips working together at 42.5 exaflops â 24x the compute power of the worldâs largest supercomputer. Itâs a huge leap forward in the âage of inference,â where AI doesnât just respond but proactively reasons and generates insights. Plus, it's nearly 2x more power-efficient than its predecessor and 30x more efficient than Googleâs first TPU from 2018.

4. Google Unleashes Gemini 2.5 Flash â Faster, Smarter, Cheaper AI Is Here
Google is stepping up its AI game with the release of Gemini 2.5 Flash â a faster, more efficient version of its flagship model. Built on the same foundation as Gemini 2.5 Pro but optimized for speed and cost, Flash introduces dynamic and controllable reasoning, letting the AI think more (or less) depending on your prompt. Itâs launching first on Vertex AI for developers, but Googleâs ultimate goal is to roll out the entire Gemini ecosystem on this improved 2.5 architecture. Meanwhile, Gemini Pro now powers Google's Deep Research tool, claiming better results than OpenAIâs equivalent. The AI arms race just got a new front-runner.

5. Anthropic Launches $200/Month Claude Max Plan for Power Users
Anthropic is going premium with Claude Max, a high-end subscription tier for its AI chatbot Claude, starting at $100/month and going up to $200/month. The new plan offers significantly higher usage limits and early access to the latest features and models, including its powerful new Claude 3.7 Sonnet. Itâs a clear move to compete with OpenAIâs ChatGPT Pro and tap into the booming demand from heavy users. While thereâs still no unlimited plan, Anthropic says itâs keeping the door open for even pricier options down the line â including one that might cost $500/month.

6. Microsoft Hits the Brakes on Some AI Data Center Projects â Including $1B Ohio Site
Microsoft is tapping the brakes on its massive AI infrastructure push, pausing or slowing several data center projects â including a $1 billion plan in Ohio. The move reflects a cooling in demand for computing power, just as OpenAI begins building its own capacity. Despite this shift, Microsoft says it still plans to invest over $80 billion globally in AI infrastructure this year. The decision surprised local officials in Licking County, Ohio, where Microsoft will now reserve some land for farming instead of servers â a sign that even Big Tech is recalibrating its AI race strategy.
