Adobe published a report today showing that creators are increasingly embracing creative AI, with 75% of respondents now describing it as integrated or essential to how they work. Here are the details.

Adobe’s second 2026 Creators’ Toolkit Report released

Adobe today published its 2026 Creators’ Toolkit Report, based on a survey of more than 16,000 creators in Australia, France, Germany, India, Japan, South Korea, the U.K., and the U.S.

While last year’s report found that adoption of creative AI tools was accelerating, this year’s edition suggests the technology has become an integral part of how many creators work.

In general, creators said AI-powered creative tools are helping them work faster, though their outputs still often require significant editing. In fact, editing and retaining control of the final output remain essential.
