What's "insane" is the ignorant over-reaction this entire thread is full of.

I don't think it's an over-reaction.

For instance, if I'm a landscape photographer who sells licensed photos, I'd happily sell my work to a company that wants to include it in a training dataset of bridges.

If I take portraits and someone comes along and wants to build a facial recognition dataset, I personally might have an issue with that.

Adobe is removing that choice from the legal owner of the work.

If you are fine with it, great. Don't assume everyone is.

Another thing I have an issue with is the "opt-out" rather than "opt-in" choice.

Adobe is making the same assumption that you might be making; everyone is fine with it, what's the big deal?

Opt-out feature roll-outs are a dark pattern and synonymous with bad behavior in my opinion.
