“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.”

This references a single particular product. lol. If they're training a model by a different name with customer data, it would still be a true statement.

The points about lawyers and NDA's hit the nail on the head. I thought something similar with the Windows Recall debacle. That's a juicy set of data for anyone looking to find journalist sources or scrape a hospital's network. In every case it relies on the end user (business or individual) to know how to disable those features with GPOs/registry options... There's no way 100% of them realize the issue and have the knowledge to fix it.

They just wanna review your work 😀. What if you're trying to put a penis on Trump's face and it's too big or it's pointing the wrong way or something? You know. Wouldn't you want to be told stuff like " the police is coming unless you erase this now!" You know, things like that? It would definitely come in handy to catch kids doing nudes of others. Or adults doing nudes of other adults who didn't know. I wouldn't want to end up in a collage of nudes that is 20MBb 1080p or 4K.

But "big brother" would mean they watch you.

I read everywhere that they claim the rights to your projects, which is far worse than just watching over your shoulder innit?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Where did you read that? I can bet it wasn't the TOS, because that's not in there. The TOS allows Adobe to review anything you create with its products using manual or automated means, and maybe restricted to normal screening for CSAM and such (although it's really ambiguous about what they'll actually do with it).

Bullshit

I have a sub. I download their app. And the they have the gall to install anti piracy software?

But did they super duper pinky promise, cross their heart, hope to die, poke a needle in their eye??

"Promises"

Dear Adobe:

I. Don't. Believe. You.

regards,

Me. And probably your entire end-user base.

Interesting, we get to either hate them for going full big brother, or hate them for going full adobe in the first place. It's nice to have a choice sometimes.

Here's a License change which implies we're datafarming all your assets.

Here's my word that we're absolutely not goijf to be doing that. Trust me bro.
