Adobe's models are 100% trained on works they own or license the copyright to.

Synthetic datasets are being built in Unreal Engine and with automated photo turn tables.

When midjourney and all other models built upon copyrighted work they had no license to disappears (and any models which were in turn trained on the output of Midjourney et.al.), perhaps.

I have to ask, was the license broadly interpreted to include AI training, or was that part of the original license? Because the former is what Google is doing right now with their video AI and scraping youtube.

For completeness sake, Adobe does not appear to have taken Google's lead in this.
