Adobe to modify terms of service regarding genAI training following customer criticism

A recent announcement made by the organization highlighted that in response to customer concerns, they will be revising the language used in their terms of service. This decision was influenced by the feedback received from customers, leading to a commitment from Adobe to seek input from customers before implementing changes scheduled for June 18.

Adobe acknowledged that while their approach towards utilizing customer content remains the same, they recognized the necessity to have updated and clarified the terms of use at an earlier stage. The company expressed the intention to enhance clarity by modernizing legal terminology for better understanding among customers.

In their latest blog update, Adobe stated, “The forthcoming revised Terms of Use, set to be unveiled next week, will feature more precise language. These terms will be restricted to current and imminent activities, utilizing simple language and examples to elucidate the meaning and rationale behind them, ensuring improved customer comprehension.”
