Adobe Firefly FAQ

Adobe Firefly is a standalone web application available at firefly.adobe.com. It offers new ways to ideate, create, and communicate while significantly improving creative workflows using generative AI. In addition to the Firefly website, Adobe also has the broader Firefly family of creative generative AI models, along with features powered by Firefly in Adobe flagship apps and Adobe Stock.

Adobe Firefly is available to CSUB customers through its Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.

To log in to Firefly Web, go to firefly.adobe.com and log in with your CSUB email and password. Students can purchase a creative cloud license via On The Hub. Faculty, staff, and student workers can request a license using their department chargeback information via ITS Service Catalog.

Firefly follows the internationally recognized best practices in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level A and Level AA. Accessibility features supported by Firefly include keyboard navigation, screen reader, color contrast, and forms.

The results depend on your prompt, and they play a crucial role in guiding the AI's behavior and influencing the quality and relevance of its responses. Write descriptive prompts to create extraordinary and vibrant images and video — if you don't like the results, reword your prompt to get closer to what you want.

The current Firefly generative AI models were trained on a dataset of licensed content, such as Adobe Stock, along with public domain content. As Firefly evolves, Adobe is exploring ways for creators to be able to train the machine learning model with their own assets so they can generate content that matches their unique style, branding, and design language without the influence of other creators’ content. Adobe will continue to listen to and work with the creative community to address future developments to the Firefly training models.

No, we don't train on any Creative Cloud subscribers’ personal content. For Adobe Stock contributors, the content is part of Firefly’s training dataset, in accordance with Stock Contributor license agreements.

As part of Adobe’s effort to design Firefly to be commercially safe, we are training our initial commercial Firefly model on Adobe Stock images, openly licensed content, and public domain content where copyright has expired.

The laws concerning generative AI are quickly evolving through all jurisdictions around the world. For any discussion regarding copyright, contact a legal service provider in your area familiar with the current state of the laws.
