Rejections for AI generated images featuring people who do not exist

I make art by generating AI images then compositing and overpainting. The people in the images do not exist, so obviously I cannot get a model release form, nor do I need to. I wrote in the titles of these images stuff like 'digital concept illustration of a fictional person' to try and indicate this. I started getting rejections asking me to supply a model release, so I resubmitted these with 'yes' to recognisable person, and uplaoded an explanatory note stating the above - and they've been rejected again. Please can someone tell me how to resolve this, since I don't see any way to progress here without direct contact with a moderator.

For AI generated images containing elements that can be perceived to be a recognizable person, you must submit a MODEL RELEASE if the prompt, either written or visual is based on a real person. 

 

If however, such as the scenario you described, the "recognizable person" is completely fictional, then you must submit a PROPERTY RELEASE. Please review the FAQ for additional clarity on our generative AI requirements.

 

Thank you,

I contacted Adobe Support, so in case anyone else wants the real answer instead of speculation, what you need to do in the case of an image containing an AI generated person who is not based on a real person is label the image as 'generative AI' and uplaod a property release. Details here:

Thank you, Electric Dreams, for getting to the bottom of this.  I have been dealing with the same issue.  May I ask what company you used for yours?  I used Dall-E.  Were you able to get a "property release"?  If so, how did you do that?  I looked on the Dall-E site and don't see one anywhere.  This is ridiculous btw lol!

I don't think it's ridiculous that you need to prove the AI has permission to use all the work in its database. It keeps Adobe from getting sued. So it keeps YOU from getting sued. Suing people is very big business.

As stated on Generative AI Content (adobe.com) :

 

Any content created with generative AI tools that depicts, is based on, or is intended to portray an identifiable person requires a model release.

Yes, and as I said, my work does not depict, is not based on, and is not intended to portray an identifiable person... these are generic prompts to produce people who do not exist, I am not making the figures look like a celebrity, no names are used...

You won't get in contact with image moderators. Please look here for AI-generated assets: announcing-the-adobe-stock-policy-on-generative-ai-content 

 

As for model release: I'm not any more sure that AI generates images out of the blue. So, they need to get fed by real pictures of real people. You can try to submit a property release for such cases, I do not know how the moderators instructions are at the moment.

 

You could also try to contact contributor support on this: Need help? (Stock Contributor Support)

AI generates people based on a averaging/composite of its database of millions of faces, so your comment about it being 'real people' is incorrect. If i said 'portrait of Scarlett Johanssen' in my prompts it would generate someone that looked a bit like her, but I don't do that, I say 'young Caucasian female with red hair' or whatever, which creates an averaged face within those parameters, not a copy of a real person.

 

Adobe Stock is full of AI genberated people, I see them everywhere, so there must be some way of getting them accepted - that's why I'm asking.

Ganz einfach die Lösung, Adobe will deine Fotos/Grafiken nicht, ende, sie sitzen am längeren Hebel, denken sie jedenfalls, kann sich auch mal ändern dann suchen sie nach Fotos, so lange wir sie genug Füttern sind sie das Gesetzt. Adobe wird es anders sehen. Man kann nicht mehr so wie früher Fotografieren gehen, das ist vorbei.
