Adobe Stock, one of the largest collections of stock photos and images, is getting new AI updates. Adobe’s Firefly AI model offers two new features: generative edits and generative variations. They do exactly what they sound like; with generative edits, you can use AI to modify existing images, and generative variations use stock photos as reference guides to create new images.

Generative editing will include the ability to remove the background of a stock image, replace a background with AI-generated elements, and expand an image, such as turning a square image into a 16:9 rectangle. These tools use the base image to create a coherent image with the original and AI-generated elements.

Generative Variations will create entirely new images using the stock image as a style reference or composition. So if you like the setup of an image — element placement, depth, sharpness, etc. — you can tell Firefly to reference that design when it generates whatever you asked it to. You can do the same with style, guiding the AI ​​towards a specific color palette or aesthetic.

Photographers who submit their work to Adobe Stock are already agreeing to leave the company train its AI models on their creations and won’t be able to let go of these new AI tools that are being used in their work. Action Contributors will be paid for the times their work is used to generate alternate versions and those AI versions are downloaded. Adobe said that adding these tools “increases the versatility of an asset, making it more likely to be licensed.”

Adobe was investing massively in AI. Its photo and video editing programs have recently received a variety of new editing tools based on artificial intelligenceand soon, Adobe users will be able to generate video besides the pictures of them fire fly exemplary. The company also invests in better AI tags with content credentials and the Content Authenticity initiative.

Stock libraries like Adobe have become even more important in the AI ​​age as tech companies look for sources of content to train their models on. Adobe AI models are trained only on Adobe Stock and other public domain content (such as content for which copyright has expired), not on content from individual creators or pulled from the open web.
