In response to questions regarding the company’s artificial intelligence (AI) practises, Scott Belsky, chief product officer at Adobe, asserted that the software giant has never used material made by its users to train generative AI models. In an interview with Bloomberg, Belsky stated, “We have never, ever used anything in our storage to train a generative AI model”.
A screenshot of Adobe’s terms of service was tweeted earlier this month by the Krita Foundation, a team creating open-source graphics software. The screenshot stated that “Adobe may analyse your material using approaches like machine learning (for example, for pattern recognition) to develop and improve our products and services.”
Some users interpreted this as evidence that the software giant was using user-generated content to train its generative AI models and criticised the business for automatically opting customers into content analysis.
Belsky stated that the policy is not meant to create an impression and called the criticisms a “wake-up call.”
Belsky stated, “We are implementing a fresh evolution of this strategy that is more specific. “We must identify it and describe how we’re utilising it if we ever allow users to directly opt-in for generative AI. We must be extremely clear about these issues “Added he.
According to the study, the software giant has created a variety of tools and solutions that make use of AI algorithms, including Adobe Sensei, an intelligence layer that works with programmes like Photoshop, Lightroom, and Premiere Pro.
