For our creative applications, our primary focus is to provide unparalleled creative control to empower the creativity of our customers. We prioritize improving quality and performance, adding the most requested features from the community, and incorporating generative AI when it can complement and improve workflows (with features like Generative Fill in Photoshop, Generative Remove in Lightroom, and Generative Recolor in Illustrator).

We also understand that the community has a wide range of opinions and needs around generative AI, may choose not to use generative AI features, or may want to use models other than Adobe Firefly. Our approach to generative AI within our applications is to let the community choose how and whether they use it within our applications.

Non-Adobe Models

We often get requests from the community for more flexibility and options on which models can be used within our applications. We may provide a choice to use non-Adobe generative AI models within our apps. If we provide the choice to use non-Adobe models, we will be clear when non-Adobe models are being used and you will have an explicit choice on whether to use those models.

We will also provide access to information on the non-Adobe models users can enable to use in Adobe apps, but it is the responsibility of the creator to decide whether non-Adobe models are appropriate for their project taking into consideration factors such as the focus of the model, how it was trained, and whether or not it is safe for commercial use.

No matter which generative AI models we may give a choice to use within our creative apps, user content is not and will not be used to train generative AI models.

If you have any questions, or just want to hang out and chat, you can join us on Discord or the Adobe Community forums.
