>>110067769You don't have to play malware roulette with any cracks/keygens for ArtCraft since it's free out of the box.
>>110067769It's open source, isn't it? I don't think much people really give a shit about that fact though; most are more concerned with the fact that it was produced by AI, and the fact that Adobe got BTFO. If it's produced entirely independently from Adobe products' source code (i.e. used GIMP as a base), then I don't think that Adobe has any legal recourse.
>>110067769i tried it, it's shit. most of the feature is broken. It only looks similar but that's about it. Even Gimp is more usable. Maybe it will be better in a few years.
>>110067853IIRC they used clean-room reverse engineering of Adobe's products.However, Adobe's Terms of Use specifically has a clause against reverse engineering and also using their software to train or "improve" machine learning or AI systems.https://www.adobe.com/legal/terms.html#no-modifications-reverse-engineering-artificial-intelligencemachine-learning-aimlThey also summarize:>"We invest in our technology and services and don’t allow you to recreate or attempt to recreate our products."It seems to exist in an unprecedented legal grey area. We'll have to see what the future holds for vibe-coded software like ArtCraft.
