When you use the AI services in Photoshop, it tries to connect to their servers. But to crack Photoshop, you need to blacklist all those servers. If you try to, say, use the automatic background removal tool, Photoshop will give you a message saying that it will run the (worse) version locally because it can’t connect.
Not that I’d know or anything. A friend of a friend told me. Basically a stranger. Don’t even know his name.
Because when someone presents you a lengthy document. One that describes all the ways they claim ownership of your work (and work in progress) - in detail - it only matters how much they really mean what’s written down? Let me spare you the sarcasm and just say this doesn’t communicate the professionalism professionals are demanding. Quite the opposite.
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.
“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.
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.
I’m betting the reason they want access to “moderate” your projects is to train their AI. Literally looking to steal artists work before it’s out the door.
A fun way to combat this would be to get every artist to add giant, throbbing dicks to everything they create in Photoshop with the hope that it creates the thirstiest, nastiest AI model out there.
Not just dicks, but dicks mixed with other art so it just completely pollutes the training data and the AI has no idea how to draw anything without it kind of looking like a dick. Dicks with human and animal faces, boats shaped like dicks, dick buildings and landscapes etc.
It would take an immense amount of bad data to actually work, but it would be funny.

Oh, if they PROMISE.
Fuck Adobe. I’ll pirate PS and AI until I die. Greedy fucking pigboys.
That 15 yr old cracked CS5 I have on an old hard drive is looking mighty scrumptious right now.
Does the PS pirate version have the Ai stuff, removal features and such?
the pirate stuff lets me control what version I want / need.
It won’t have anything that relies on “the cloud”

Right, Since it can’t call home, the advanced features will not work or at least not work as described, is that correct?
That is correct. Most (all?) of the services are run on Adobe servers, not locally
OK, so what happens when Florida starts deciding more content is illegal?
Literally big brother shit.
Not yet, anyway.

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

“We obviously have tight security around any form of access to customers content.”

Every time we trusted a large tech promise on an unverifiable claim, they ended up shafting us. Just sayin’.

That’s absolutely what’s going on.
