Text to Vector Tool

I teach a Digital Design class and this new "Text to Vector" tool is making my life difficult.  The school pays a subscription for every student.  I am now having to deal with kids passing AI vectors as their own. Can anyone tell me how I can turn off this feature on a student's computer?

I do not know the details of turning it off, but there have been threads in which people didn't have access to the AI functions and they found out that their IT department has turned it off. Those were company accounts. So maybe the school's IT department could get in contact with their Adobe tech person and inquire that.

 

If it's not possible to do the same in education accounts, then of course you could make a documentation of the creation process a part of the homework. Let them document their process with screenshots and descriptions. It's good for reflecting anyway. And also when they want to remember later on how they did something in that homework, then they can just read their own documentation.

 

And maybe check out this: https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/kb/adobe-firefly-for-k12.html#:~:text=Select%20the%20View%20Details%20icon,user%20assigned%20to%20this%20profile.

Are those subscriptions managed by school IT or are those individual licenses? If the latter, you can't turn if off.

 

First thing: Adobe has already announced that the generative AI will come at a cost. https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/using/generative-credits-faq.html

 

Second: those generated artworks can be easily spotted. I'm teaching as well. I have told my students that I can tell when they hand in generated AI. I also taught them how they can tell generated art from carefully manually built artwork. I want them to be proud of their work. I want them to be able to tell their future clients why their art is worth it.

The subscriptions are managed by the school IT.  If that makes a difference in being able to turn it off, I'm glad it can be done.  I can tell also, but honestly in today's school culture calling a student a lier is difficult.  It would mean paperwork and/or parent and meetings.  So the easiest way is to remove it altogether.  All the subscriptions have been bought for this year, I will try and see if it can be removed for next year.
