Photoshop 2025 oddity

My sistr had sent me an email the other day about Microsoft where in your permissions, you can turn off AI permissions for training. Mine was always turned off.

You think it's the same thing for Adobe, but under their preferences for adobe.com, especially for @Gene5FBC  using Photoshop for the Web. Because I do use Adobe everyday, night and day, I am actually OK with Adobe letting to use whatever I do for AI?

It sounds like a conspiracy theory, but this is the dark side of AI showing its face. Massive amounts of data are harvested in real time and fed into targeted advertising.

What's new is the types of data harvested. Yes, it's true, the phone records everything you say. It turns out this is a function that you can actually disable - but with great difficulty and few people know how (I don't).

I don't think it's Photoshop per se, but there's an embedded web browser in Photoshop and god knows what it's up to. Aside from that, nothing surprises me anymore. There's just too much money in this to pass up. Google or Meta or Apple could fund a medium-sized nation all by itself.

Window>Application Frame turned off to see an underlying webpage so that you can sample colors outside Ps (a thing)? Gurgle was watching.

Hey, I've even have had a browser open to the product Siri overheard me talking about! (shh, s/he might be listening)

This was with Photoshop?  Was it Photoshop on the Web?  As Jane has said, that has nothing to do with Photoshop.
