You can now turn PDFs into podcasts and slides with Adobe’s new AI feature
Adobe adds AI-powered document conversions
Adobe
Adobe Acrobat now has a new set of AI-powered features that can transform documents into presentations and even audio podcasts, making it easier to consume and repurpose information.
These tools build on Acrobat’s existing AI Assistant, which was already capable of answering questions about documents, but now goes further by reshaping content into new formats. For users handling reports, research papers, or long PDFs, a new AI capability called ‘Generate’ can turn dense text into content that’s easier to scan, share, or listen to.
Turning documents into podcasts and presentations
One of the most eye-catching additions is the ability to convert documents into audio podcasts, a feature we first saw on Google’s NotebookLM. Acrobat’s AI can summarise a document, structure it into a script, and generate spoken audio, allowing users to listen instead of read. It can help you catch up on material while commuting or multitasking, rather than sitting through pages of text.
Acrobat can also generate presentations from documents, automatically pulling out key points and organizing them into slides. Instead of manually copying content into PowerPoint or Google Slides, users can let the AI handle the first draft, then edit or refine it as needed.
Adobe is also expanding how users edit PDFs using natural language. With AI Assist, people can ask Acrobat to rewrite sections, summarize content, or make edits through simple prompts rather than manual tools.
The update also improves how Acrobat understands document structure, making it easier to extract insights from complex files like contracts or technical reports. With AI now deeply embedded, Acrobat is shifting from a passive document viewer into an active tool for creating, learning, and sharing information in more flexible ways.
Adobe’s AI push isn’t limited to Acrobat, as new Premiere AI tools designed to streamline video editing workflows and the ability to use Adobe’s photo and PDF editing features directly inside ChatGPT are helping users work faster and more intuitively.

You can finally buy ASUS’ outrageous 720Hz OLED monitor
ASUS’ 720Hz Tandem OLED monitor is available to preorder now, with dual refresh modes and flagship features.
Gamers and display enthusiasts can finally take the next step toward ultra-fast visuals. The ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG27AQWP-W is now available for preorder, bringing one of the most talked-about gaming monitors of 2025 into the real world. The new ROG Swift OLED monitor was first teased last year and has since become something of a legend in enthusiast circles for its combination of Tandem OLED technology and astonishing refresh rates.
At its core, this 27-inch QHD gaming monitor uses LG’s latest Tandem OLED panel, which unlocks a native 540Hz refresh rate at its 2560×1440 resolution. However, a special dual-mode setting lets you push the screen up to an eye-watering 720Hz when you drop the resolution to HD (1280×720). It’s a capability that mirrors the LG UltraGear 27GX790B-B. Both panels use dual-mode refresh tech to combine ultra-fast motion clarity with OLED quality.
After RAM, storage could be next to break your budget
Storage components face upward pressure as producers cut NAND production amid AI demand
If you thought rising RAM prices were tough on your wallet, storage might be the next tech category to feel the pinch. According to a recent report from Chosun Biz, major flash memory producers Samsung Electronics and SK hynix are planning cuts to their NAND production in 2026, even as demand for storage continues to grow, particularly from AI and data center customers.
That shift has sparked concern that SSD prices, already trending upward, could climb even further this year. NAND flash memory is a core ingredient in solid-state drives, USB flash drives, and other storage products. As such, tighter supplies can ripple across PCs, tablets, and enterprise hardware alike. Analysts say the combination of supply constraints and shifting production priorities could reverse years of steady price declines in the consumer storage market.
Google’s Gemini can now help you practice for exams with free mock tests
Google turns Gemini into an SAT prep tool
Gemini can now help students prepare for the SAT with free, full-length mock tests, giving test-takers a way to practice without paying for expensive prep courses or tutoring. Announced at the BETT 2026 education conference, the update enables students to take on-demand SAT practice exams directly within Gemini.
While other AI assistants can generate practice questions, they do not truly replicate standardized tests. What sets Google’s Gemini apart is that its mock exams are not just randomly generated questions, but structured to mirror the real SAT experience.
