Too many to mention. Not to say OpenAI/MS are not capable of building similar features. Just that Adobe's tools are incomparably more advanced than integrating a prompt into MS Paint.
I get that completely outlawing the idea of credits would remove the ability to dynamically change the cost of computing for new purchases while still retaining computing units for people who have already bought them, so maybe credits themselves as a concept could stick around. But using them in advertising copy should not be allowed without providing the calculated dollar equivalent right alongside of them
"Shove it into MSPaint!"
I can't wait for Clippy2 inside notepad.
- It's available to most ChatGPT plus subscribers (very soon to be all of them), the subscription costs the same as it did before
- It's available for free in Bing Image Creator, with optional "boosts" that speed up generation (more can be redeemed with Microsoft Rewards)
- And now it's available in Paint as a part of their Windows Copilot update, for which they have not talked about pricing at all (Microsoft 365 Copilot has pricing, but it provides different services and is meant for companies)
If it's anything like their current Dall-E 3 filtering, the only things you will be able to generate without triggering any warnings or filters are inert landscapes
Try "a super hero asleep on the couch, under a blanket" in dalle-3 and see what you get, I get zilch no matter how many times I run it, this is clearly unsafe content apparently.
Not even free generations while it's in Beta? Damn.
No, I'm not defending CSAM or AI simulacra of it. Fusing the medium with the censor is an abomination. It's Cocreator wagging the finger today, tomorrow it's Clippy popping up to tell me that what it thinks I might be making is too objectional for me to continue making it.
Not because they are afraid of regulation, but because they want to lobby for anti-competitive regulations using "safety" as the premise.
It feels like the same argument about hosting files: if you provide a service then you're responsible for what happens in it.
There's plenty of self hosted image generators without any guardrails whatsoever if you're so inclined. Browse around https://civitai.com/ for a bit you'll quickly see the implications
A shark hunting is over the line but it can look for fish fine?
$50mm pre-product valuations for startups producing 3D assets for games via prompting a foundation model.
Zero due diligence on the U.S. copyright office’s stance that every asset those companies generate will be open to reuse.
You could copyright the underlying character maybe. But its a major headache for these companies and a symptom of the broader fact that copyright needs legislative reform, not attempting to shoehorn AI into the current law.
I am not sure that legal protections are guaranteed with using adobe AI, it could be better censored and so less risky(?), but I've not looked into that much yet.
As far as ethics go, I'm not sure that the photographers or artists or people in the stock photos had intended to give rights to remix their work using AI for all sorts of unforeseen uses.. and not just taking a person and putting their face in a pic / advert about [insert terrible thing here] - but also change their expression ..
