To many rejections for AI images

[music_healing_for_the0281]

I am an artist with considerable experience. However, I truly cannot understand why so many photos are being rejected here. There are certain techniques in photography that are generally accepted.

And I wonder if some of those reviewing the photos might be overly critical in their assessments. Meanwhile, these same photos are accepted on another platform. However, the hours of work lost are significant, and my primary goal is to grow here on Adobe.

If anyone can explain this to me, I would greatly appreciate it.

The problem is: you are not doing photography, you are doing generative AI. I truly cannot understand why you are talking about photos, when they are pictures only.

Yes, in photography certain techniques are generally accepted, but stock does not allow for all of those. Eg: in photography you can play with over and underexposure, or noise, low contrast, high contrast, sharpness and out of focus, but those effects will be considered in stock as a defect.

But by checking one of your assets (fifth), I'm seeing typical generative AI errors, nothing that happens in photography: 

(circle) you see here typical reneringh errors for generative AI. those need to be corrected. I also see compression artefacts, you need to correct those too and then I would also elimiate most of the highlights that are indeed common in photography, but often disturbing.

Zoom in to at least 100% and scroll around to every area of the images. The drawing errors are easily spotted.

They are not photos but AI-generated images - which is a completely different game.

...why so many photos....

These days, you should specify 'AI photos', rather than just 'photos'. There is a huge difference!

You did say in your title for 'AI images', but then you referred to them as photos. This can cause confusion, and hence the replies saying 'you are doing generative AI'.

Having 'considerable experience' doesn't count for much here. Your assets either get accepted or not.

What gets accepted on another platform is irrelevant!

You may think that what others have pointed out is being too picky, but nevertheless, it is something to consider and bear in mind!
