Adobe’s new generative AI to create art, design, and edit at your command? Check this out. #AdobeFirefly #AdobePartner

@Adobe Firefly was trained by pushing a ToS update to Adobe Stock, forcing contributors to either terminate their library or be trained on. No opt-in, no opt-out, no compensation, just their work held hostage. Their framing of Firefly as an ethical tool is pure corporate gaslighting.

@Adobe Training off of a dataset of unpaid artists, including stock artists, is unethical.

@Adobe Why do I have a nagging feeling that you were paid to promote this? Because any creator or realistically any worker in general promoting this on their own would be working against their own self interest.

@Adobe

@Adobe Graphic designer: "hey, i'm an artist and i can design a......" You: "No thanks, i have AI to do the work"

@Adobe "We need to compete w/ generative AI co's. We can't use a model like SD as that would be a PR nightmare ... Let's just train it on IP we already own. Free labor, they already signed away their rights! ... Shhhhhhhhh, quiet, just keep telling them it's a tool & not a replacement."

@Adobe Where's the art?

@Adobe Damn how many of you have Adobe paid to shill this it’s flooding my timeline

@Adobe Can ai create this though? Check mate dingus

@Adobe Thanks, but I’m an artist and I’ll make my own shit. Or I’ll pay one of my graphic design friends to do it.
