Hi, I have a question with commercial use of work done through Photoshop (Beta)/ Generative fill.
I have created through Generative fill more background to an image and I would like to know if I can use it for commercial purposes.

Many thanks,

António

Correct answer CShubert

Can we copyright our own GenAi content?

Example 1: We use our own image as a base, and add AI imagery and effects.

Example 2: We create a full GenAi image from our own imagination and prompts.

Hi @Lorraine Mc that is an excellent question. Here is what the US gov is saying about AI and copyright:

What confuses me is that I'm seeing lots of Ai generated content on Adobe Stock. Any of these images (which are clearly made for commercial use, as they are on Adobe's own licensing platform) could have been made using GF in Photoshop. I just need quick access to a (legal!) photo for commercial use for a class I'm writing. It seems I can't use Photoshop to create my own image quickly, but I also can't count on licensing sites to be legal either, as so many of the images are now made with GF. Any thoughts or tips are appreciated.

@Elle32424771bhhc with the release of Ps 25.0, NON beta, GenAi is available for commercial use as Ps has always been. There are no restrictions in Ps on its use so there is no need to be worried. If we didn't understand the question, please let us know. To make it as simple as possible, if you use GenAI that is now available in the public release version of Ps, you can use it for commercial use, no issues.

Hello Antonio,

As of Photoshop 2024 Version 25.0, Generative AI is available for commercial use. Update your platform to be able to continue using using your creations for your business.

Hi all, Ps beta and GenAI use will not be changed as far as commerical use, if customers want to use GenAI for commercial jobs, they will need to use the general release of Ps: Adobe Photoshop Version: 25.0.0 20230906.r.37 b14e317 x64

Você pode dizer qual a diferença entre o GenAI do Beta 25.1 para o Photoshop 25.0 ? agora? Ou ambos são iguais nesse momento?

So are education and editorial uses considered "commercial?"

Under copyright law they are not.

I am curious how Adobe is interpreting "commercial."

And I am still patiently waiting for an answer to my question.

How is Adobe interpreting "commercial" use? Do education and editorial uses fall under that definition.

And if not, how are "commercial" publications and paid writers able to write stories about Adobe Generative AI Beta and use Adobe Generated AI Beta images in their articles since both of these (publication with ads and writers who are being paid to write the articles) ARE commercial uses of Adobe Generated AI Beta Images.

Anyone?

Agreed.

VERY impressive.

Intersting thread, I have question.

The generative fill is now on the released 25.0 version of Photshop,

That is the generative fill is in the final paid for version of Photshop.

The thing that is bothering me is that they prompt you to use it as soon as you

launch Photoshop wich is cool, but it also says to agree to it's uses and guidelines

for the new AI fill, that is also cool and I took the time to read it because it

previously read some time ago that while on beta the fill was not be used

for commercial products, so I thought Ok then now it can be used to make

commercial products?

However on the license it only reads that while the generative fill is in "beta" you are not use it lest

you are doing work that will not be commercially in nature, however now the generative fill

is right next to the older content aware fill, right on the final version of Photshop that supposedly you can

use to make commercial work.

This a bit jarring because I almost clicked at it on the context floating menu on a project

I signed an NDA for, and that would have meant I could have share that part of that file

to be processed on their AI, while not knowing the AI is not be used commercially yet?

but its right there while all the other tools that I can currently use to make commercial work?

just not this one, I think it needs a red warning on the button or something then? or if not

then let us know straight away.

This strikes me as extremelly odd, if the generative fill is not in beta, then

an extra paragraph should be added on the license stipulaing that if you use the generative fill on the final

current release of Photoishop then its safe to use for your commercial project, and if its not why it is now

on the final Photoshop release, if its still beta shouldnt it still be on the Beta version of Phtoshop?

If this cant be use used commercialy then we are being mislead and a person could just end up doing

work that is not viable to sell without knowing, and if its viable then let us know on the license that

atm is contradicting it self, by having a feature that is Beta on the released version.

Please let us know then, the feature is really cool, and I would love to use it, but only if I can

use it for work like the older content aware fill, and if its not ready either, legaly, or tecnically, then

leave it be on the beta however long it needs to be.

Thank you for you time.

Cheers!

So yes or no, I couldn't get the final answer from that article.

It says it's designed to be safe commercially but not of its ok to be used commercially.

Commercially safe means it can be used commercially.
