VERY DISTURBING !!! Many images (vectors) copied by AI by a contributor!

[GaBuZo]

Hello,
A contributor is using artificial intelligence to create images that are almost identical to mine and hundreds of other contributors! It's blatant. He's not inspired, he's copying. Copied images are the origin of vectors.
I won't give his name here, nor any examples... I don't think that's allowed on this forum.

Who can I submit this problem to? Thank you.

Sorry, translation problem. It's not hundreds of contributors being copied, but hundreds of images being copied.

If someone else is looking at existing AI images to write their own text prompts to create similar images, there's really nothing you can do about it. It's not image theft, and it's not illegal, and it's not in violation of any Adobe Stock T&C's.

Thanks for your reply, but...

I don't use AI to create my vectors.

The copier uses AI to create "non-vector" images.

It's not inspired.... the similarity is 99%.

Is there a specific person at Adobe I can refer this problem to?

Other contributors are "copying in the same way."

It's allowed to post examples from the assets...

[daniellei4510]

Frankly, I'm not sure how that's possible. In my experience, AI results are far too random for a text prompt to come close to duplicating someone else's assets to the point of being noticeable. Of course, the key phrase here is "in my experience." Without examples, it's difficult to say what might be going on.

Am I allowed to make an example? 

I do not want to violate the rules of this forum.

What are the ID numbers of the alleged duplicate assets in Stock?

Sure. it is allowed. Why would that violate forum rules? You won't publish private information. And btw, forum moderators would step-in, if you would overstep.

"Almost identical" is NOT theft.

Recipe for pancakes:

#1 Flour, salt, butter, milk, baking powder.

#2 Flour, salt, buttermilk, baking soda.

They look & taste the same, but they are not the same.

Recipes are a good example. Most reseipes are not copyrightable. So if you write a cookbook, someone can copy some of your receipes and add them to his own cookbook, with minimal adjustments.
