Adobe Offers Limited Protection Against AI-Based Copyright Infringement

We haven’t written much about Adobe’s entry in the generative AI footrace because their main focus has been Firefly, a tool for creative departments.  But they made a splash last week with an announcement that they’ll indemnify Firefly users against claims of copyright infringement, which is a big concern.  The news was probably over-hyped; Adobe’s actual announcement is carefully circumscribed: “enterprises also have the opportunity to obtain an IP indemnity from Adobe for content generated by certain Firefly-powered workflows.”
