The Future of AI in Design

Introducing Magic Studio:
Canva, the popular web-based design platform, is ringing in its 10th anniversary with the launch of Magic Studio. This new suite promises to be the zenith of AI-driven design tools, aiming to simplify content creation for all.

Magic Switch: Say goodbye to manual adjustments! This feature lets you:
Magic Media Updates: Beyond just text-to-image, this tool now:
- Offers text-to-video capabilities via Runway AI.
- Gives users a broad spectrum of style choices.
- Incorporates leading AI image generators like OpenAI’s DALL-E and Google’s Imagen.
Photo Editing Tools:
- Magic Grab: Effortlessly select and edit any subject in an image.
- Magic Expand: Expand images beyond their frames, reminiscent of Adobe’s Generative Expand tool.

Safety First!
Canva isn’t just about innovations. They’re also about responsibility. The newly launched Canva Shield ensures that:

The AI won’t create unsafe or unsuitable content.
Provides free AI indemnification for enterprise clients.
Allows team leaders complete oversight on how Magic Studio tools are deployed in their workspace.

Contributor Compensation:
In a move that’s sure to attract designers, Canva is earmarking a whopping $200 million over the next three years. This fund is set to compensate designers who allow their creations to be used for training Canva’s AI. Not only will participants receive an upfront bonus, but they’ll also get monthly payments based on the utility and popularity of their contributions.

With these new tools and features, Canva is gearing up to be a major contender against giants like Adobe. Their user-friendly design platform, which already boasts of 16 million paid subscribers and over 150 million global users, is set to make waves in the design world. Adobe, with its own AI offerings in Adobe Express, will need to up its game to keep pace with Canva’s burgeoning appeal
