Announcing Adobe Firefly – A new family of creative generative AI models

[MatHayward]

Hi Everyone,

This morning Pacific Daylight Time, we emailed our contributors the following message.

“We wanted you to be the first to know that today Adobe introduced Adobe Firefly, a new family of creative generative AI models. Firefly’s initial focus on images and test effects is now available in beta at firefly.adobe.com. The first model of Firefly is trained on Adobe Stock images, openly licensed content, and public domain content, where copyright has expired and is designed to generate images safe for commercial use. During the beta phase, the Firefly-generated assets cannot be used for commercial purposes.

We are investing in generative AI to help creators transform the way they imagine and explore possibilities. We are committed to developing generative AI responsibly, with creators at the center. Through efforts like the Content Authenticity Initiative, we’re standing up for accountability, responsibility, and transparency in generative AI. We are developing a compensation model for Stock contributors, and we will share the details of this model when Firefly exits beta.”

If you asked to access firefly this morning, and you got a refusal, then all the slots may be taken, and the systems are running at capacity. If you didn't get a refusal, you need to wait.

Hi, will AdobeStock Contributors be able to create via Firefly content/images/illustration and sell here on AdobeStock?

[Abambo]

Adobe accepts generative AI files. So there is a chance that Firefly generated assets may be accepted to stock. Firefly is currently still in beta, so we still have some way to go.

Can I use these Ai generated image on adobe stock? 

[Jill_C]

No, not while the product is still in Beta release. The images generated by Firefly have a large Adobe Firefly logo on them as a clear reminder that the product is not yet released for commercial use.

When will AI generated imagery be avialable for commercial use?

[Jill_C]

Images generated with Adobe Firefly or utilizing the Generative AI feature built in to Photoshop, are now okayed for commercial use. That change was made when the products were released from Beta testing.

Are you speaking of Firefly and Generative Fill? It has been available for commercial use for about the last three to four weeks.

[Abambo]

Generative fill in Photoshop is Firefly, integrated in Photoshop.

When will AI generated imagery be avialable for commercial use?

It is, from Adobe and competitors.

Do you have a question about this asset? Was it rejected? This forum is not Instagram or Facebook. If you have a specific question about an image, please do more than just post the image itself.
