Adobe Day Session: Empowering Creativity Responsibly

This hands-on workshop explores how to harness the creative power of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Firefly while developing critical awareness of ethical considerations in digital creation. You'll experience both traditional design skills and cutting-edge AI capabilities, learning when and how to use Firefly's generative features—backed by Adobe's commercially safe approach to AI that protects creators and respects intellectual property—alongside Photoshop's design tools. Through interactive projects and guided discussions, you'll discover how Adobe's Content Authenticity initiative across Creative Cloud provides transparency in an era of AI-generated media, enabling you to disclose AI-assisted work responsibly. Faculty will learn how to teach responsible creativity in their courses, staff will explore how to elevate visual communication across campus initiatives, and students will gain confidence in creating compelling digital work while understanding the ethical implications of AI-assisted design and your role in fostering trust and transparency.
