As it was probably expected, the contest has sparked some serious debates, and I’d like to share the images and give my two cents on the whole thing.

In an era increasingly dominated by deepfakes, voice cloning, and AI-generated images and video, it’s hard to tell what’s real anymore. Not to mention that people don’t use their critical thinking and even fail to notice when something is obviously fake. To combat these issues, or at least contribute to the fight, Adobe has unveiled Content Credentials. It’s a new technology designed to restore trust in the content we consume daily. It’s a label added to content created with the help of AI, but there’s more under it. If you like, you can reveal the entire history of the image and its editing journey.

Ahead of next week’s Adobe Max event, Adobe is set to announce a pretty powerful editing tool. Of course, it’s AI-powered, and it lets you edit every piece of your image as if it were a separate layer. Just select the bit of your image, and start moving it around, changing its color and appearance, or remove it completely. Adobe has released a sneak-peek video, and I must admit, the tool looks pretty impressive.

Many artists have complained about tech giants using their work to train AI models. Some, including writer George R. R. Martin, have even filed lawsuits against OpenAI, Stability AI, and other companies for using their work for these purposes without permission. OpenAI is now offering a chance to artists to remove their creative works from being used in the training data of DALL-E 3, the company’s newest image generator. But there’s a catch: the process is so detailed, complicated, and time-consuming, that artists have called it “enraging.”

After almost two years in beta, Adobe has officially released Photoshop on the web. This is a simplified and accessible version of the photo editing software, but apparently, it’s not that simplified. Considering that Generative Fill also got out of beta in the meantime, it has become a part of Photoshop for the web, too.
