Adobe updated its terms of use. Then, chaos. My first enterprise story for Bloomberg Law: Customer turmoil over a seemingly routine change in Adobe Systems Inc.'s terms of use agreement spurred a rare internal reckoning over how the company communicates complex legal issues to users and account for anxiety around generative AI. “As technology evolves, we have to evolve,” Dana Rao, Adobe’s general counsel, said in an interview with Bloomberg Law. “The legal terms have to evolve, too. And that’s really the lesson that we’re sort of internalizing here.” Over the weekend, some Adobe customers revolted on social media, crying foul at updated terms of use they claimed allowed Adobe to seize their intellectual property and use their data to feed AI models. The Photoshop and Illustrator maker responded with multiple blog posts over several days seeking to reassure users it wasn’t stealing their content, including a pledge to quickly rewrite its user agreement in clearer language. Rao said Tuesday that Adobe will be issuing updated terms of use on June 18 in which it will specifically state the company doesn’t train its AI models Firefly on its cloud content. The unexpected online storm around the updates is the latest example of how sweeping technological changes—such as the rise of generative AI—have bolstered users’ fears of copyright violations and privacy invasions. That sentiment is part of the landscape the tech industry must navigate to serve a creator community increasingly on edge.

We are rolling out our Patentbreaker (102/103 invalidation search) to a couple hundred litigation attorneys and law firms this week. Here is the story of one technical adjustment that dramatically improved our results. The flow for Garden Patentbreaker is pretty simple: it’s submitted patent -> similar prior art -> claims chart comparing the original patent to the prior art. The hardest part for us in this process was actually generating a claims chart. A claims chart compares the original claim language (broken by claim element) with the entirety of the prior art publication. In a manual process, it would take a couple of hours and a few thousand dollars. The meat of the analysis is in finding specific keywords along with similar words/phrases that are contextually relevant to the claim being described in the original patent, with the idea being that the prior art invalidates the claim as it was disclosed before. We threw the kitchen sink at this problem. Finding substrings (or phrases) inside a couple thousand word document while maintaining (global) context is pretty challenging on a consistent basis. We tried different large language models, hoping larger context windows from Anthropic and OpenAI could solve the problem. We were working late into the night when Justin had a clever idea. The most important piece to our analysis was formatting the output properly (having certain phrases in the claim language highlighted with the relevant prior art references in different colors, similar to how a normal claims chart would look like). Giving an LLM multiple tasks at the same time usually results in all the tasks being done poorly. So, we decided to refine the output of the LLM progressively, similar to how a human might do it. We broke up our method into a call that generated an unstructured analysis (similar to a rough draft a human might have) and then a subsequent call with a structured analysis with quantitative values on strength of invalidation, which formatted the phrases across the two documents properly (similar to a final review by a manager). This simple refinement procedure helped us condense a tedious process that would take a couple of hours into less than a minute, helping save thousands of dollars in the process. More importantly, putting LLMs to work helps save our customers time from tedious tasks to focus on the bigger picture: inventing.
