Adobe has introduced Custom Models in public beta for Firefly, giving you a way to generate images in your own visual style instead of relying on generic AI outputs.

By uploading your own images, you can create a model that reflects your specific look, whether that is illustration, photography, or character design.

You will be able to generate multiple assets without starting from scratch each time. These models are private by default, which matters if you are working with brand assets or internal projects.

A growing library of models and tools in one place

Adobe is also expanding Firefly into a single workspace for AI creation. You now get access to more than 30 models from Adobe and partners like Google, OpenAI, Runway, and Kling.

New additions include Google’s Veo 3.1, Runway Gen-4.5, Firefly Image Model 5, and Kling 2.5 Turbo. Instead of switching platforms, you can generate content with one model, compare it with another, and keep editing inside Firefly.

Adobe is also introducing new tools like Quick Cut, which can turn raw footage into a rough edit within minutes. You can also add or remove objects, extend scenes, and refine visuals with more control.

How Adobe is turning Firefly into a complete AI studio

Firefly is moving beyond prompts and transforming into a workflow where you can brainstorm, generate, edit, and refine content in one place.

Adobe is also leaning into agentic AI, where the system helps guide creative work instead of waiting for commands. At the same time, it continues to stress that Firefly is trained on licensed data, making it safer for commercial use.

Meanwhile, Adobe is also experimenting with ideas like Project Moonlight, which can turn random clips into polished edits automatically, showing how far AI-driven creation could go next.

Microsoft is retiring the Together Mode in Teams in favor of something cleaner and simpler
Teams is retiring Together Mode for layouts people may actually use

Microsoft Teams is retiring one of its more recognizable meeting features, and it might be for the best. The company announced that Together Mode is going away in Teams as Microsoft is shooting towards a simpler set of meeting layouts.

To recall, Together Mode was introduced during the pandemic-era video call boom, placing participants inside shared virtual environments such as auditoriums or classrooms. It was a cute idea at the time, but it never became the everyday meeting view for most people.

Experts are worried that smarter AI gets, the dumber we might become
Experts say chatbots can help research, but leaning on them too hard risks outsourcing the work that builds intelligence
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman during the Uncapped podcast in June 2025.

AI can now answer questions so quickly that the search itself can feel optional. That convenience worries the Royal Observatory Greenwich, which has warned that instant AI answers can weaken the curiosity, scrutiny, and source-checking behind real knowledge.

The risk hides inside the usefulness. Chatbots can help people test ideas, move faster, and find new angles, but a finished response can also cut users off from the messy trail that makes learning stick. When that happens, information arrives without the struggle that turns it into judgment.

Miss the old PC days? This website lets you experience Wikipedia like it’s Windows XP
This XP-style Wikipedia explorer turns online research into a nostalgia trip, while showing how much browsing changes when search takes a back seat
File, Webpage, Person

Wikipedia has an unofficial new front door, and it looks like a desktop from a very specific era of family PCs, school labs, and chunky blue title bars.

Developer Sami Smith has built a browser-based Windows XP Wikipedia explorer that turns categories into folders and articles into documents. It’s playful, slightly inefficient, and more interesting than another AI search box bolted onto the web.
