“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.
Every time we trusted a large tech promise on an unverifiable claim, they ended up shafting us. Just sayin’.
“We promise”
Source: Trust me, bro
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.
Oh, if they PROMISE.
Fuck Adobe. I’ll pirate PS and AI until I die. Greedy fucking pigboys.
Pirating Adobe software is exactly what they want you to do. Their business model relies on businesses paying for their license because people already know how to use their software, in large part because people pirate it, and also they have deals with schools to teach their software.
What Adobe actually doesn’t want you to do is to learn the software of their competition, since that’s how they will lose money in the long term.
I use Figma at work hahaha
Those are the easiest apps to replace. I’ll just use Gimp and Inkscape until I die. Not even tempted by Adobe’s bloat, spyware, etc.
That 15 yr old cracked CS5 I have on an old hard drive is looking mighty scrumptious right now.
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.
Riiiight. And, pray tell Adobe, why in the everloving fuck woul you ever need to “review” private content that’s not posted anywhere? Stop acting like you’re the goddamned pre-crime agency from Minority Report and keep your dirty paws off stuff people are creating privately.
You are providing tools, and that’s it. I can do horrible, illegal shit with my drill, but it doesn’t give Black&Decker any right to break into my house to do random checks and see if I’m drilling through kneecaps instead of wooden planks…
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?
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).
Dear Adobe:
I. Don’t. Believe. You.
regards,
Me. And probably your entire end-user base.
claims that the company often uses machine learning to review user projects for signs of illegal content
OK, so what happens when Florida starts deciding more content is illegal?
Literally big brother shit.
This is what Tumblr did too after they banned porn. It couldn’t tell the difference between the Sahara Desert and boobs.
Relevant Wikipedia?
Exactly my thoughts. Adobe is not the police and they should not be the ones trying to deter crime by any definition. How many horrible things have governments done to “protect the children”?
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.
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”
adobes promises are meaningless. you are now their product
Okay, I promise the did go big brother.
So what now, my word against theirs?
