In an exciting move for creators everywhere, Adobe announced on Tuesday that it's launching a free web-based app next year to help image and video creators get the credit they deserve in the age of AI. 🖌️✨
Since 2019, Adobe and other tech giants have been developing \"Content Credentials\"—a digital stamp that acts like a signature for photos and videos online, showing how they were created and by whom. 📸🖋️
Guess what? TikTok, owned by China's ByteDance, is already on board! 📱🌏 They've agreed to use Content Credentials to label AI-generated content on their platform, making it easier for users to spot the difference between real and AI creations. 🔍🤖
Adobe's new free service will let creators attach these Content Credentials to their work, ensuring their name travels with their content wherever it goes on the web. ✈️💻
But that's not all! Creators can also use the app to indicate if they don't want their work used by AI training systems that gobble up huge amounts of data. 🚫📥 This is super important because the use of data in AI training has sparked legal battles, like publishers such as The New York Times suing OpenAI, while others are striking licensing deals. ⚖️📰
So far, no major AI companies have agreed to Adobe's transparency system, but Adobe is pushing hard for industry-wide adoption. 💪🌐 \"By offering creators a simple, free, and easy way to attach Content Credentials to what they create, we are helping them preserve the integrity of their work while enabling a new era of transparency and trust online,\" said Scott Belsky, Adobe's chief strategy officer and executive vice president for design and emerging products. 🎙️🌟
Stay tuned, creators! This could be a game-changer in how we protect and credit creative works in the digital age. 🚀🌌
