In early January, Adobe came under fire for language used in its terms and conditions that seemed to indicate that it could use photographers' photos to train generative artificial intelligence systems. The company has reiterated that this is not the case.
Adobe has added a "Content Analysis" section to its privacy and personal data collection permissions that, unless opted out of, opens photographers' images to being used to train the company's artificial intelligence and machine learning models.
Capture One has added the ability to tether to a camera to its iPad app, bringing one of the most requested features to the mobile platform.
As promised, Capture One has launched its editing application on iPad that brings its RAW conversion and photo editing software on the go and is built specifically to take advantage of the unique tablet workspace.
Capture One will launch its long-awaited iPad app on June 28. The company says it isn't intended to replace the desktop experience but work as its "best companion."
Over the last two years, Capture One has been working to greatly expand its service to be a better choice for not only professionals but also a wider group of users. With Capture One 22 on the horizon, as well as a new iPad App coming early next year, the company is far from finished and says an iPhone app is coming next.
Google says that since more photos are being made every year, it has decided to roll out a number of new features for Drive for desktop and replace the current Backup and Sync with a unified sync client that connects content from across devices and Google Photos.
In November, Google announced that it was removing easy access to its unlimited photo storage option in Google Photos. Sensing blood in the water, Verizon has launched an unlimited storage option in its own competitor cloud service.
ON1, the software maker behind ON1 Photo RAW 2020, has just released something called ON1 360°: an "end-to-end photography workflow solution" that lets you view and edit your photos across various devices without needing to store them in the cloud, and all for a lot less than Adobe is charging for Creative Cloud.
