Adobe needs to STOP pushing generative AI to scientists

I am a scientist. Please, please, please stop prompting me to use generative AI while producing scientific figures that represent my data. I personally know better than to use this, but it is terrifying when I imagine the trainees in my lab, or the Center I direct, whose careers depend on making exciting new observations, being presented with these prompts.

Up until now, illustrator and photoshop have been crucial tools for scientists.  Introducing generative AI into the data presentation process risks- at minimum- having universities and scientists turn away from these tools.  I have explored with my institution whether we should ban the use of Adobe products for scientists because of this flaw.  At worst it encourages scientists, especially junior scientists, to create the data they believe are exciting, rather than present their actual experimental data.  This undermines science at large.

PROMPTING SCIENTISTS TO USE GENERATIVE AI MUST STOP. Please please please. I propose Adobe issue generative-AI-free products that universities can choose to subscribe to for their scientists.
