The Unlabeled AI Vector Fraud on Adobe Stock

Hi, I’m writing today because as a graphic designer, I need adobe Stock, but since more than a year I have a clear statement for you.

Now on 70% of the vector files specifically, opening vectors makes me feel completely scammed. The quality is atrocious. Adobe has broken my trust by letting these unprofessional liars sell garbage on a premium platform. Retributing someone for a bad job makes fell unconfortable.

Adobe Stock needs to implement stricter algorithmic filters to detect untagged AI content, and provide an accessible, one-click "Report Untagged AI Content" button on every asset page.

I can provide so many profils for you. Please help us and find out a solution. 

Thank you in advance

    Contact Adobe Customer Support to request a Stock credit refund.  Give the agent the asset ID # and reason it’s unusable.

    Click the online chat icon, ask for an AGENT.

     

    Good luck.

    Complètement d’accord ! et rien est fait pour aller dans le bon sens.
    J’ai déjà signalé plusieurs fois. Ils essayent de faire le taf et d’enlever. C’est bien mais c’est pas à nous clients qui devons faire la police et reporter les contenus frauduleux. A un moment donné il faut comprendre aussi qu’on paye tous les mois pour avoir un contenus de qualité. 
    Je pose juste une question :  si la moindre recherche qui est faite la réponse est un visuel généré par IA, quel intérêt de le télécharger ? Autant le générer. 
    A force Adobe va entraîner Firefly sur des images eux même générées. Bonjour la consanguinité...

    Il existe un marché pour les ressources générées par l'IA, même si je ne comprends pas non plus ce phénomène. Pour le reste, les contrevenants dans ce domaine font l'objet d'enquêtes et leurs comptes sont supprimés. Et je suis d'accord avec vous : le client ne devrait pas avoir à vérifier cela à leur place.

    Absolutely this is a huge problem that I am having too! Often there is a clipping path on a rastered image and they sell it as vector. It is terrible.

    If there is an issue with an asset and you would like it removed, please post in the community.
    Please include the asset number and the reason for the removal request.
    A staff member will then conduct a re-review.

    GenAI labels didn’t exist until after 2023. You may be viewing older content.

    TIPS: 

     

    Hope that helps.

    YES!!!!! Christopher, I agree. Adobe has lost my trust. I don’t think they look at these posts but I wish I could be proven otherwise. I only use it for my job now, but have stopped using it as a personal tool because of the company’s pandering to shareholders and monetary greed. It’s one thing to do it covertly, but another to fall in the footsteps of other Silicon Valley villans and completely neglect your userbase: ARTISTS. Adobe is nothing without us.
