Sammi sits down with Stacy Martinet, Adobe’s VP of Marketing and Communications, for a behind-the-scenes look at how one of the most influential creative companies is thinking about AI, creativity, and trust. Stacy shares why AI’s biggest “unlock” isn’t replacing creators— it’s getting rid of the blank-page panic and helping people start faster, whether you’re a student, a solo creator, or a CEO building a global brand. They get into the real ethics questions: what data goes into generative AI models, why “commercially safe” matters for brands, and why Adobe is betting on transparency and choice, including letting users pick between different AI models. Stacy also breaks down content credentials (think: a “nutrition label” for digital content), what it means for the future of credibility online, and why visuals and motion are quickly becoming the universal language of the internet. Plus: Stacy’s playbook for earning attention in a chaotic media landscape, how Adobe launched Firefly in a community-led way, and her advice for creators and entrepreneurs trying to build a personal brand that actually stands out—without losing the plot.
