To the extent I give Adobe gentle but unending grief about their near-total absence from the world of UI innovation, this is the kind of thing I have in mind. What if any layer in Photoshop—or any shape in Illustrator—could have realtime-rendering generative parameters attached?

Like, where are they? Don’t they want to lead? (It’s a genuine question: maybe the strategy is just to let everyone else try things, and then to finally follow along at scale.) And who knows, maybe certain folks are presently beavering away on secret awesome things. Maybe… I will continue hoping so!
