Adobe Photoshop & ΑΙ

The buzz of the week? It’s all about Generative Fill, the latest AI feature in Photoshop powered by Adobe Firefly. Available in the beta version of the Photoshop application, it allows you to expand the photo or add objects by generating them with AI.

Generative Fill supports Content Credentials, a kind of tag that adds attribution data to images before they are shared online, thereby informing the audience that the content has been produced using AI. You can check an image’s Content Credentials here.

Adobe is striving to uphold its position as the premier choice for AI-generated art, prioritizing compliance and safety from a legislative perspective. This effort reflects their commitment to leading the industry not only in innovation but also in legal and ethical standards.

Food for Thought

Yuval Noah Harari, a figure known for his provocative insights, contributed to the Frontiers Forum with a speech centered on AI’s impact on humanity’s future. He delved into the influence of AI on our civilization, its potential threats, and the challenges surrounding its adoption.

Harari’s main point is that regardless of the pace of technological progress, it is vital that we become aware of the new reality in which we live and act accordingly.

Definitely worth checking out his talk.
