Photography rejected as AI content

well, it could be possible but It would be the first rejection with this description.  Lately I have had some few rejection, but only with this generic description "Grazie per averci dato la possibilità di valutare la tua immagine. Sfortunatamente, questa immagine non soddisfa i nostri standard di qualità, quindi non possiamo accettarla nella nostra raccolta".  Let's see what they say

That's quality issues. All refusals have generic texts. I tried to explain you that here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/stock-contributors-discussions/photography-rejected-as-ai-content/m-p/14456780#M79381. Moderators select refusal reason 1 to 6 (or something like that) and that corresponds to the refusal. And the text you see is generic stock text, and translated into all languages. If it pleases you, I can show you the reasons in Japanese. And the text will change, even for old refusals when Adobe decides to modify that, as they did with “Non-compliant Image”. Now my 6 years old refusal shows as possible reasons the AI stuff. 6 years ago, generative AI was no talking point here.

So what is important is the header. It gives you an indication.

• Quality issues: check exposure, focus, artefacts.
• IP: check for logos and other identifiers.
• Non-compliant: check keywords and sometimes also elements in the image.
• Aesthetic or Commercial Appeal: move on, they think the asset won't sell.

If you are unsure about the possible points that triggered the error, post your asset here in the same quality as submitted and we will look it up.

The header is important. In Italian, it's: “Immagine non conforme”. What you show there is just stock text of no importance, as it gives only some possibilities, and probably, as most of the assets submitted now are generative AI, the most probable topics. But also my very first refusal from 6 yeas ago now shows those topics. Don't consider this text as the absolute reason for a refusal. There are still many others…

The third line is for you.
