TechCrunch：想躲开 Adobe Creative Suite 的难度与价格的人过去有若干免费/开源替代，各覆盖一部分能力；开发者 Brandon Thomas 现在用 AI 驱动的逆向工程去模仿 Adobe 知名软件的外观、手感与功能，并希望很快做到"完全一致的还原度"。Artcraft 去年还是一款"可控的艺术家 AI"(对 AI 生成的图像与视频做精确的后编辑)，上周末则宣布转向——一套七款开源应用组成的套件来复刻 Adobe。标题引其"软件已经结束"的狂言。

For a while, those hoping to avoid the difficulty and expense of dealing with Adobe's Creative Suite have been able to use several free and/or open-source alternatives that replicate some or all of those capabilities. Now, one developer is using AI-powered reverse engineering to mimic the look, feel, and functionality of Adobe's well-known software with what he hopes will soon be perfect fidelity.
Artcraft got its start last year as a "controllable AI for artists" that allows for precise post-generation editing of AI-crafted images and videos. Over the weekend, though, the brand debuted its pivot to a suite of seven open source apps recreating the user interface and tools found in Adobe's Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, Lightroom, After Effects, InDesign, and Acrobat Pro.
In announcing those new apps on Reddit earlier this week, software developer Brandon Thomas said he used Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 to create "clean-room replacements" for Adobe's closed source software in Rust (with WebAssembly versions available for use in a browser). And while commenters on Hacker News and elsewhere have taken pains to point out the new software's many current shortcomings, Thomas make the grandiose promise that the current "super early alpha" state will soon lead to something just as functional as anything Adobe has ever put out.
