I guess that if they wanted to charge extra for the AI features then people wouldn't want to pay them for it. So instead of buying a perpetual licence with 3 years of updates included, and having to pay extra for AI features, they decided to just kill the software in 3 years.
I wonder how the justification for all this will go when people will have enough NPU processing power in their computers to do these operations and not need to have the work done on a server?
- jdiff 2y agoThere won't be any justification. The on-device computations probably won't consume credits, but that's the only future change anyone could hope for. Adobe won't be letting go of their subscriptions unless something major happens.
- daemin 2y agoThe same as all businesses which sell software to other businesses. It's subscriptions all the way down.
