Issue with Illustration Review Process

I would like to address an issue regarding the current review process of uploaded illustrations. It seems that recently, not only AI-generated images but also non-AI artworks are either being rejected or experiencing significantly delayed reviews.

 

For example, out of 50 illustrations created with the help of AI that I recently uploaded, only around 5 were accepted, while the rest remain under review for a week or even up to two weeks. This slow processing is also affecting illustrations created entirely without AI assistance.

 

Could you please clarify what is causing these delays and whether there have been recent changes in the review workflow or policy?

 

Thank you for your attention and support.

 

Best regards

Many Contributors have reported recently that they're experiencing an unusually high rate of rejections. There is conjecture that Adobe has changed their procedures or even introduced an algorithm causing these results. So far, Adobe has remained silent on this issue. As to review times, they're wildly variable. Images might be reviewed overnight or they may wait weeks or months.

I’m curious about the reason behind the way image reviews and rejections are handled. What surprises me most is that when I submit a batch of images with a similar theme, only a few are reviewed right away, while others remain in the queue for weeks. I’m not asking about the review time itself, but rather why the entire batch isn’t reviewed at once

I think Adobe stock just reviewing those image that having market value..Due to having too many assets, they are not reviewing the remaining ones۔

There is no change in anything, except that the contributors are still submitting more assets than can be handled. That's all. Adobe moderates a huge amount of assets a day, but generative AI saturates the moderation queue.
