Adobe states in its Premiere pages that Generative Extend media is not used to train Adobe's model, that feedback uploads include the generated media (and optionally a 3-second low-resolution reference snippet), and that Premiere includes Content Credentials on export when the sequence contains Adobe AI-generated assets. Adobe's Generative AI User Guidelines (updated May 2026) forbid removing or altering Content Credentials and say prompts, inputs and results may be reviewed. No inspected Adobe Generative Extend page states that its output specifically receives Content Credentials. No Blackmagic or Avid document inspected mentions Content Credentials, C2PA, provenance or watermarks. Curator qualifications: 9 of 9 excerpts present. S10 intro: 'Use Content Credentials when you want to establish authorship of your video content or prevent AI models from using your work for training'; setting: 'Check the I request that generative AI models not train or use my content box if you want to request that generative AI models not use your content for training' (CE confirmed: 'prevent' vs 'request'). DaVinci Resolve Studio page: 0 hits for C2PA, Content Credentials, provenance, watermark; the 2 'train' hits are the 'Training' navigation link. Other Blackmagic/Avid texts (S19-S21, S23-S26) and S7, S11 not re-read. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
