Adobe Acrobat uses AI to turn your PDFs into podcasts

The Verge
Adobe Acrobat has introduced new generative AI features, including a podcast generator and presentation creator, within Acrobat Studio.

Summary

Adobe has integrated new generative AI capabilities into Acrobat Studio, its AI-infused document workspace, designed to streamline PDF editing and summarization. A key new feature is 'Generate Podcast,' which creates an audio summary of documents like reports or transcripts, currently utilizing a Microsoft GPT model for transcription and a Google voice model. For visual summaries, the 'Generate Presentation' feature leverages Adobe Express tools to create pitch decks based on document insights, offering automation or manual editing. Furthermore, the AI assistant now supports chat-based editing, allowing users to modify PDFs—such as adding signatures, removing content, or replacing text—simply by describing the desired changes.
