Recently the industry standard photo manipulation program Adobe Photoshop (you might have heard of that) released a beta version of their app that adds generative AI art standard. It is an interesting step in the inevitable reach towards AI generated art but Adobe’s product has a unique advantage: by pulling imagery from its own massive Adobe Stock collection, the legality issues that are potentially associated with other AI generators and where their art comes from is removed.
