Ethical AI Practices at Adobe

Adobe prioritizes an ethical approach to generative AI, employing several guardrails to ensure responsible usage. The company emphasizes accountability by training its AI models solely on images and intellectual property that they own, which protects the interests of content creators. Additionally, contributors have the choice to opt in or out of having their work used for AI training, fostering a healthier creator economy. This approach not only secures peace of mind for users but also allows for new monetization opportunities for artists, echoing the structure of traditional stock photography.
