Adobe on Wednesday made a number of generative artificial intelligence technologies available throughout its software after months of development.
The foundation of Adobe’s subscription software business is its line of editing tools like Photoshop.
The business has been gradually integrating new AI features, such the capacity to create images from text, into those programmes during the previous six months.
As content producers sue technology companies in court to determine whether they are owed royalties for the use of their work in “training” AI systems, Adobe is assuring businesses that the content its systems generate will be legally safe to use.
In order to support its claims, the company is providing its clients with a financial indemnity. Adobe’s system is built on content that either belongs to it or is in the public domain.
Adobe added that many of its subscription products will see monthly price increases of $2 to $5 starting in November.
Users of Adobe will receive a set number of “credits” to use generative AI features. Users have the option of purchasing additional credits or continuing to utilise the functions, although at a slower rate.
Adobe also announced that it would compensate the authors of the stock image databases used to train its AI algorithms.
