Adobe Promises That It Hasn't Gone Full Big Brother

In the age of artificial intelligence, every internet user is reduced to their lowest form. It's a morbid existence, knowing that whenever you post to Reddit, review a restaurant online, or upload a photo of yourself, that could be scraped and used to train generative A.I. models to make the next great (or not-so-great) chatbot. So, when Adobe informed its customers of changes to its terms of use this week, many of its creative-minded loyalists read the update and promptly freaked out. A pop-up notification informed them that the company "may access your content through both automated and manual methods, such as for content review." Elsewhere in the terms of service, users posted on X (formerly Twitter) to complain about caveats in which Adobe might analyze user content using machine learning.
