Funny how that works both ways.

"I am 100x productive with AI, I can ship in days what took months before" and "oh no, you don't understand, it's not really possible to vibecode Photoshop" found elsewhere in this thread.

If I were magically 100x productive, the first thing I would do would be to recreate Photoshop.

Can I ask why? Specifically, why Photoshop and not Canva, or Figma, or Lightroom?

I ask because Photoshop probably wouldn’t have a market if it was introduced in 2026.

What would you be hoping to accomplish by recreating Photoshop?
