I'm all for shitting on Adobe, but this post is false according to what Adobe is saying in plain English:

  • Adobe does not train Firefly Gen AI models on customer content. Firefly generative AI models are trained on a dataset of licensed content, such as Adobe Stock, and public domain content where copyright has expired. Read more here: https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/faq.html#training-data
  • Adobe will never assume ownership of a customer's work. Adobe hosts content to enable customers to use our applications and services. Customers own their content and Adobe does not assume any ownership of customer work.

This isn't binding tho, Adobe could change their minds in a year and then legally train an AI on all the data they've collected. Their own blog post doesn't even preclude that, their AI language is present tense. In addition they could just license the data to other AI companies.

This is PR bullshit. They have not changed their license one iota from what it was 2 days ago and, ultimately, the license is what goes. They have not corrected course. All they have done is asked users to trust them in a blog post. The problem with that is that blog posts are not legally binding and, in a field full of nasty, predatory and untrustworthy firms, Adobe is one of the nastiest, most predatory and least trustworthy . You do with that what you will.

Depends. They have yet to update any legally binding (or official) documents like EULAs.

I'll believe it what I see, as it were.

"Trust us bro" from Adobe is worth zero.

How dare you present us with facts!

Apparently the mods hate facts because they removed my post.

@ArmokGoB @kde Those statements sound reassuring but they don't mean much. Adobe can say anything it wants on a blog about what it is and isn't doing right now, but the TOS changes still explicitly protect their right to do those things if they want to, so they are free to just change their mind at any time, reassurances aside.

If Adobe really wants to reassure customers, they need to write those limitations on themselves and their activities into the TOS.

I guess we can watch for network activity when we save and export images.
