If this were the case, there would be no reason for a creator to create. Imagine you write a book, or create anything. No laws to protect you from someone taking it and republishing it. This would be the death of creation.

One of the two most beautiful sentences in all of Lord of the Rings. 👇
“For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.” - Tolkien, The Return of the King

“Once in those very early days my brother brought into the nursery the lid of a biscuit tin which he had covered with moss and garnished with twigs and flowers so as to make it a toy garden or a toy forest. That was the first beauty I ever knew.” ~C. S. Lewis

I’ve had a drink. I want to share w/ fellow artists my optimistic views on the safety of their jobs during the rise of AI gen art. Don’t get mad, I expect to be wrong here and there.

I spent tens of thousands of dollars paying photographers, studios, models, makeup artists, costume designers, prop makers, and assistants to create our Stock assets. I loved this work and invested everything I could give. Adobe used their ToS to scrape my IP, and gave it to grifters who then flooded the same market with GenAI. They used my own IP to compete against me. Keep that in mind right now.

A number of people are jumping in to defend Adobe insisting ToS is "normal and common". Adobe has a exhibited a pattern of abusive behavior towards creators. If we consider something to be problematic, that's a real concern. That there is confusion at all IS a concern.

Hey @adobe you don’t own our artwork. You’re a tool, that’s all.
“I wonder what’s happening on Twitter? I haven’t been on in a while. Oh what’s this chatter about Adobe? Oh cool cool “

So am I reading this, right? @Adobe @Photoshop I can't use Photoshop unless I'm okay with you having full access to anything I create with it, INCLUDING NDA work?

This lovely book reminds us that there is hope in the worst times. Pray for and support Ukraine. Peace! @linamaslo
Replying to @MacKidsSL
Drawing from her own family’s experience in the 1932-33 Ukrainian Famine-Genocide, @linamaslo weaves a thoughtful story in Threads: Zlata's Ukrainian Shirt that messages hope, pride for one’s heritage, and context for today’s War in Ukraine. bit.ly/4aLB9sr
