firefly "text to image" licenses and use

Question

Hi! Wanted to ask some questions about firefly "text to image"

1. The official page says https://www.adobe.com/products/firefly.html "Trained on Adobe Stock images, openly licensed content, and public domain content, Firefly is designed to be safe for commercial use" . I wanted to know - does firefly use paid photos and vectors from Adobe stock or only free ones? Can I have problems with individual authors with adobe stock, if I will use in commercial images generated by adobe firefly "text to image" and lose the link to the generated image or cannot prove that the image was generated using firefly?

2. Сan I sell, transfer, modify images generated by firefly "text to image" (and what are the licensing rules)?

3. Want to use generated by adobe firefly "text to image" images (generated by other people around the world) in commercial in Russia, Belarus, and China, can I do what?

Hi @Anton12211 this is a user based public forum. Adobe legal would not respond to such specific concerns here.

This page covers the training data models used - https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/faq.html#training-data

This article covers how Adobe compensated stock contributors for training the AI - https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2023/09/13/adobe-firefly-adobe-stock

Enterprise customers have indeminification options from Adobe - https://helpx.adobe.com/legal/product-descriptions/adobe-firefly.html

Images you create using Firefly or any other Adobe feature are able to be used for commercial purposes (meaning you own them to sell, transfer, modify) as you wish.

I'm not a lawyer but this is all part of your software agreement terms - https://www.adobe.com/legal/licenses-terms.html
