Concerns around Training Data for Firefly Image Generating Software

Adobe's Firefly image generating software, primarily trained on Adobe Stock, raised questions about the transparency of its training data. While Adobe claimed Firefly was a safer alternative to competitors, it was found that the model also used content from AI rivals, creating ambiguity. The Senior Vice President of Adobe reiterated that they stand by Firefly's safety and ensure it doesn't violate intellectual property rights. Despite acknowledging the use of AI-generated content in training, clarity regarding sources and thorough content moderation remains crucial for maintaining commercial safety.
