November's first wave of Black Friday deals are well underway. Although gadget and apparel deals tend to get the most attention, Adobe is offering a massive discount on its Creative Cloud subscription.

Right now, you can get the annual Creative Cloud plan for $34.97/month at Adobe. That's 50% off and the biggest discount I've seen for Creative Cloud. If you've wanted to try out Adobe Firefly, generate new backgrounds, extend an image in Photoshop or even extend a clip in Premiere Pro, now is your chance to do it at 50% off. Plus, students/teachers can also save 70% and pay just $19.98/month.

Adobe Creative Cloud is the ultimate content production platform, and with the inclusion of Firefly models for video, image and even vector art in Illustrator, it is also one of the best ways to experiment with generative AI. You can currently get the entire suite of more than a dozen apps and services at half off. You'll need to sign up for a year of service, and after the year is up, your rate returns to the old $69 monthly fee.

What makes Creative Cloud so useful isn't just the fact you get access to Photoshop and Illustrator but also the full suite of Adobe creative products, 1,000 AI credits per month, fonts and 100GB of cloud storage.

Adobe has faced tough competition in the creative content space over the past few years, but it has continued to innovate including with some of the best AI tools on the market.

For example, Firefly might not have the photorealistic flare of Midjourney or the text rendering skills of Ideogram, but its deep integration into Photoshop, Illustrator and a licensed training dataset make it an invaluable aid to creativity. It is also in our list of best AI image generators.

Now is a great time to invest in a Creative Cloud subscription as Adobe also has other models in the works built on Firefly including generative music, improved text rendering and one experiment that takes a photo of a poster and lets you recreate it with new details at the touch of a button using AI.
