Question

Long consideration but not immediately

Created an account and added 2 illustrations, one was reviewed after 4 days, the other was pending for a week, I deleted it. Then I uploaded 10 illustrations and they passed the review in 2 days. Then I uploaded about 200 images, they passed the review in 2 days, and even 2 illustrations sold. Then I noticed 41 illustrations were rejected, but before that I uploaded over 300 illustrations and here they are for review.
I have a few questions:
Could the rejected illustrations have affected the review rate?
Could the rejected illustrations have affected the illustrations' showings and lack of sales?
What factors affect the speed of review? (keywords? subject matter? title? media type? presence of rejected illustrations? )

There is no way to speed up the moderation. We all are affected. THe rejection rate is important, but not at your level. Adobe never published a critical rejection rate number, but indications let me believe that a rejection rate of more than 50% could have an impact on your account.

 

Sales have an impact, as well as adding regularly assets. It's better to put up a small number of assets each day than upload a one time huge number of assets. If you have a sale, it is very probable to get a new sale shortly after that, as there will be a temporary boost effect for your asset and account.

 

However, you will need to have many assets to get a decent regular sale rate, as you compete against millions of other assets..

Adobe has been prioritizing review of AI assets since early summer, since ~85% of the new assets added to the database since then are AI assets. However, not every AI Contributor receives quick reviews, for reasons that are unknown. Adobe will never reveal the factors that affect review speed, because then every Contributor would try to game the system. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do except wait patiently in line.

    Are they prioritizing or are there simply more generative AI assets submitted? As a photographer, I can rarely submit more than half a dozen images from one shoot. But during the same amount of time I invest in my photography timeline, a generative AI contributor can generate many hundreds of assets, a lot of them are substandard, we probably all agree. If now all these assets get submited, the moderation team simply gets submerged in assets, and my 6 to 20 photos are simply not making the difference.

     

    Also: generative AI, despite all the shortcomings and complains, seem to be good business for Adobe. Else they would get with both feet to the brakes.

    I think the dramatic growth in the number of AI assets in the database is because of the sheer volume of contributions due to the ease of generation, but also because the barriers to entry into the business for new contributors are small - many contributors do it on their phones! However the speed of review has to do with a conscious decision by Adobe, presumably motivated by the fact that AI sells. Oddly though, only about 5% of all AI assets have ever been licensed.

    Could the rejected illustrations have affected the review rate? 

    No.

     

    Could the rejected illustrations have affected the illustrations' showings and lack of sales?

    No.

     

    What factors affect the speed of review? (keywords? subject matter? title? media type? presence of rejected illustrations? )

    None of the above, except maybe media type, since different moderators probably review different media types.

     

    But it's all just conjecture at this point. We simply don't know what the issues are with regard to fast or slow review times.
