If an AI-generated image is as much an illustration as a photo - what do you choose?

When the difference is subtle, I go with illustration.

Adobe has already stated that AI-Images or photos with AI-generated objects are to be uploaded as images.

@RALPH_L :

images can be uploaded as photos, if they look like photos. I suppose that was what you wanted to say.

I don't think that any asset will get refused because it was slightly of for photos and was submitted to photos. You may be in trouble if many images that clearly belong to the illustration section are posted as photos. Fot AI assets, you won't suffer the inverse, so when in doubt simply submit ass illustration.

As a rule of thumb: anything that you could do with a camera too is a photo. Anything else an illustration.

I don't know if you have the experience, but with some AI-generated images it can be hard to know the difference.

I know that - but the difference can indeed be very subtle ...

An AI Generated image is not a photograph. Here is the definition of the word photograph:

pho·to·graph

/ˈfōdəˌɡraf/

noun

a picture made using a camera, in which an image is focused onto film or other light-sensitivematerial and then made visible and permanent by chemical treatment, or stored digitally.
