Allow cannabis images

I know this was brought up recently with a now-locked discussion. 

 

I would like to a) echo the fact that there is a large industry that is actively using the full suite of Adobe products to support the industry; and b) other Adobe products fully support cannabis. Try searching stock.adobe.com for "Cannabis Leaf" "Cannabis Bud" and "Cannabis Pre-roll" and you'll literally get thousands of images that can be downloaded and utilized in design work. 

 

Why is Firefly somehow different than Adobe Stock in this regard? Not to mention that I've build countless logo designs, package designs, and packaging renders using Illustrator, Photoshop and Dimension. 

 

What is it about generative AI that makes Adobe treate Firefly differently than the other products in the suite?

 

I will point out that the OpenAI suite, including ChatGPT and Dall-e fully support the creation of cannabis-related content in text and images.

 

My request is that you drop the restriction on using words like "Cannabis" in Firefly. Or at least offer a cogent explaination for why Firefly is being treated differently within the Adobe suite of products.

 

Thanks!

Also, if the concern is depicting images of illegal activities, I just prompted: "Photo of a car speeding down the freeway being chased by two police cars" and "Two teenage boys breaking into a building with a No Trespassing sign on it". Both images resolved just fine. If it is illegal activity that Adobe has a problem with, where does that line get drawn?

I just noticed that in stock.adobe.com, there are images offered that were created with AI. Among them are thousands of AI-generated images depicting cannabis. Here's one of tons of examples:
