    A small team of 2-4 "Vibecoders" from a company called Aircraft, using Anthropics Claude AI Opus 5.5 model, fed the binary machine code for Adobe's Creative Suite of software products into Opus 5.5 and have produced a workable source code and the entire suite of products which they have released as open source. Acknowledging that plenty of bugs exist in the initial release, the company is saying within a month they should have all the bugs resolved. The implications of this are HUGE, if 2-4 people using AI can feed the binary machine code of any proprietary into a current...

    Trying to find out something about Reader Extensions for Designer 7. I can't figure out (from the Adobe web site) how to obtain this product/software or what it costs (or if it's a free add-on). For those who will ask... I need to make a PDF form where the data can be saved. My understanding is that this functionality came with the CS3 and later (Acrobat 8+) versions (in Acrobat, under Advanced > Extend Features), but I can't find anything correlating to that in Acrobat Pro 7 or Designer 7. Thanks in advance.
