Adobe's recent move to grant themselves the right to use user content for AI training purposes has sparked outrage.

The company's controversial update to their terms of service essentially allows them to exploit creators' work without consent or compensation.

Adobe's true motivation is clear – to cut costs and fuel their AI ambitions by leveraging the files users create within their software. This brazen exploitation of user data raises serious ethical concerns and undermines the intellectual property rights of creators.

While a shrewd business move for Adobe, it comes at the expense of the very individuals who fuel their platform's success.

Creators must now grapple with the harsh reality that their art may become a mere commodity for Adobe's AI endeavors.
