Hub AI in practice
Artificial Intelligence is present in everyday life – from “googling” to facial recognition to vacuum cleaner robots. AI tools are becoming more and more elaborate and support people and companies more effectively in their tasks, such as generating graphics, texting or coding, or interpreting large amounts of data.
What AI tools are there, how do they work, how do they help in our everyday world – and how do they change our lives? These are the questions we address in our Content Hub Artificial Intelligence in Practice.
Adobe's AI image generator, Firefly, has been found to produce historically inaccurate AI images, similar to the recently shut down Google Image Tool in the chat app Gemini. Firefly generated on-demand images of black soldiers in Nazi Germany and black Founding Fathers in the U.S., suggesting that the app is attempting to avoid racial stereotypes or intentionally create diversity that did not historically exist, as first reported by Semafor. Adobe emphasizes that Firefly is not "meant for generating photorealistic depictions of real or historical events." The company has implemented feedback mechanisms in its generative AI products to identify issues and resolve them by fine-tuning or adjusting the filters. Meta's image generator is also generating historically incorrect images. Critics view this as a distortion of history. An alternative perspective is that image generators are not intended to be history books and are allowed to be imaginative.
