Hi everyone,
We recently used the "Generate Variations" feature under an existing Adobe Stock image, and entered a custom prompt to create a new version of the image. The result was downloaded successfully, but now we're confused about how this image is classified and how to handle its licensing and attribution.
Here's what we're seeing:
• In the "Library", the image is labeled as "Generated by you".
• In the "License history", it's labeled simply as "Generated image".
• The downloaded file name starts with "Firefly", suggesting it was created using Adobe Firefly.
• However, it does not appear in our "Firefly history", so we're not entirely sure if it's actually a Firefly-generated image.
We have two main questions:
1. What type of license does this image have?
In the "License history", the column where the license type usually appears just shows a dash ("–").
Does this mean it's a standard license by default?
And if we need an extended license, how can we obtain it for an AI-generated image?
2. How should this image be credited in a publication?
At first, we thought about writing: “Image generated with AI (Adobe Firefly)”,
but since it's not listed in the Firefly history, we are considering: “Image generated with Adobe Stock Generative AI” instead.
What would be the most accurate and appropriate way to credit this kind of image?
Thanks in advance for your help!
