APPLE & ADOBE NEWS
ADOBE's current Terms Of Use (TOU) seem to claim ownership of anything you create on Adobe. (?!?#!&&aach!) They claim they don't really mean that, and they are introducing a new TOU soon:
UPDATING ADOBE'S TERMS OF USE

APPLE has just announced at WWDC that they are partnering with OPEN AI to improve their AI capabilities. Years ago, SIRI was really the first AI agent to be widely distributed. However its capabilities are currently vastly inferior to what is possible these days. This is a welcome refresh.
It is worth noting that, almost 50 years ago!, Apple published a video showing what a personal assistant might be like.
Even earlier (1968), in 2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY, Stanley Kubrick demonstrated one way that AI could be problematic! If you have not yet seen this movie, you should. (It can be found on many streaming services.)
in addition to AI enhancements, there was other news.
For Apple Vision Pro (AVP) which debuted only a few months ago, there were several VisionOS announcements - including enhanced ability to promote 2D photos to 3D photos - and two new 3D cameras, plus enhanced spatial video capabilities coming from Da Vinci and Vimeo. They also announced future support for webXR.
