News Summary

• “Overall, our commitment to ethical and responsible training of AI models sets us apart from our competitors.”Those competitors include incumbents like OpenAI, Midjourney and Stability AI, as well as Jasper, whose generative art tool, Jasper Art, also targets enterprise customers.
• Generative AI, particularly text-to-image AI, is attracting as many lawsuits as it is venture dollars.Two companies behind popular AI art tools, Midjourney and Stability AI, are entangled in a legal case that alleges they infringed on the rights of millions of artists by training their tools on web-scraped images.
• But Bria’s model will allow other generative platforms to establish similar revenue sharing arrangements with creators, Adato says.It’s tough to put too much stock into Bria’s tech given the nascency of the generative AI industry.
• Adobe, meanwhile, says that it’s developing a compensation model for contributors to Adobe Stock, its stock content library, that’ll allow them to “monetize their talents” and benefit from any revenue its generative AI technology, Firefly, brings in.But Bria’s approach is more extensive, Adato tells me.
• With funding for generative AI starting to cool off, partly because of the high level of competition and questions around liability, more “narrow” generative AI startups just might stand a chance at cutting through the noise — and avoiding lawsuits in the process.We’ll have to wait and see.
• Adato doesn’t see it that way.“We’ve made it a priority to focus on safe and quality enterprise data collections in the construction of our training sets to avoid biased or toxic data and copyright infringement,” he said.
