On March 21, Adobe launched a creative generative AI model called Adobe Firefly, similar to DALL-E or Midjourney, which can use only text prompts toAI-generated images. Adobe stated that the model is trained only on licensed or non-copyrighted content, rather than works from internet artists.
In its official Twitter, Adobe claimed that its mission is to better help all kinds of creatives change the way they imagine, create, and work, so it launched Adobe Firefly:
- Adobe Firefly is a brand-new series of creative generative AI models that provides new ways to ideate, create, and communicate while significantly improving creative workflows.
- As a creator itself, Adobe sees Adobe Firefly as a way to complement their creative process through text-based image generation and editing.
- Although Adobe Firefly will ultimately consist of multiple models, its first model was trained on Adobe Stock, as well as openly licensed and public domain content whose copyright has expired.
- Adobe Firefly will currently be available as a standalone beta to gather user feedback. Based on subsequent feedback, Adobe next intends to bring Firefly into Adobe Express and AEM, and launch more creative applications.
