Blackmagic: “No AI Training”

Blackmagic has published a statement indicating that there will be no training for AI image generators regarding its cloud services. As stated on the Blackmagic Cloud webpage: “No Al Training— We acknowledge that you own your uploaded media. Blackmagic Cloud is not a trick to access your media for Al training. Your media is private and won’t be used to train Al. So you can work with security, knowing your ideas won’t leak publicly via Al”. That’s a very important statement that shows that Blackmagic cares about its users as creators. Explore the “No AI Training” statement below:

Adobe should learn from this

Blackmagic teaches Adobe how to behave with their users since Adobe said in a foggy statement that some users’ cloud data will be analyzed for some purposes, although it verified on a post-statement that AI image generators will not be trained on it. However, Blackmagic wrote it loud and clear in order to clear any doubt. Content creators DO NOT want their content will be trained for AI without paying good money for it, and AI video/image generators must understand that.

DO NOT Train my art

The Blackmagic’s Statement of ‘DO NOT Train’ is crucial, hence every content creation platform and application should include it and show it to users loud and clear. This is even more true in the case of the platform has a combination of creation applications and cloud services. Then the artform can be stored in the cloud for the sake of the platform and train the AI generators on it without notifying the users who work extremely hard on their artform. Thus, Blackmagic’s statement should be mandatory.

  1. A esto se le llama ética y respeto por sus clientes y por todos los creadores de cualquier ámbito.

    Gracias Blackmagic.

  2. Someone posted on social media around this year’s NAB (I’m paraphrasing here) “BMD is using AI to help you get your work done, Adobe is using AI to take your job”. That is a true statement considering the PR backlash Adobe is still facing. What Adobe and other companies pushing AI don’t seem to grasp is that if they put their subscribers out of work there will be nobody to pay for their software?!
