generative AI filter now available for Adobe Stock search

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm pleased to share that a filter has been added in Adobe Stock search for generative AI images. You can now filter out generative AI images from your search results, or you can view only generative AI images in your search results, or you can continue to view all generative AI and non-generative AI images in your search. Whatever you prefer, the option is yours to choose!

 

You will find the generative AI filter in the general filter panel found at the left of the search results.

 

Stay creative!

      Based on the comments thus far, I don't find it premature to suggest that AI generative content not be included in the Adobe Stock library. Reasons are 1) It doesn't seem the legal matters in licensing/copywriting/selling have been thoroughly vetted 2) AI gen. content is not well labeled, if at all. 3) Filters don't completely filter out the content 4) The image quality is sub-par, inaccurate.
      Maybe if Adobe insists it's perfectly fine selling AI gen. content, it should be separate from the Adobe Stock subscription service.

        We need a way to PERMANENTLY disable AI-generated imagery showing up in searches if we choose. Otherwise I have to click the filter "exclude AI-generated images" every single time I do a search. It defaults back to unfiltered every single time. AI-generated imagery on your site is terrible quality, and I am against it because it is decimating creative industries. I hope more people speak up about this, otherwise you will loose custoimers.

          Sorry guys there is so much AI rubbish, its not worth the effort trawling through it. That is not why I use a stock service.If I wanted AI generated images, I could generate them myself. Even with the filter some searches I am finding as much as half of the images AI trash. Even if they were good, people are against their use. Some of these images are named the generation prompt! For this reason I decided not to go ahead and subscribe

            The filter is helpful but it's easy to distinguish images in Adobe Stock that have slipped through the filtering, and there are still many that do. I hope it improves for the sake of the subscribers. The images I see that are AI generated have noticeable defects and are generally not up to high quality standards, IMO.

                HelloMat,

                Have a question about copyright and IA image :

                IA generated image is not protected by copyright because only "human creative contribution" are (recent american law). And i absolutly not take a risk to print for a client a visuel without copyright. Big Deal i think. As far as i know, Adobe stock just "transfert" the copyright from a seller to a buyer, without any responsability. So have a filter is a good starting point. Have you've got any more information about copyright and IA image ?   Cheers !

                Hi, I would like to report that casually I find a user (linked below) that has uploaded Images on AdobeStock generated with Artificial Intelligence without specifying it in the title and in the keywords. And is not possible to report this via the platform (why?).

                 

                I totally disagree the commercialization of this c***!

                  They changed the rules surrounding ai-generated content. It is now no longer a requirement, but a recommendation to properly tag ai-generative content.

                   

                  Users have no incentive to label their ai content as such any more, and we can expect even more users to exclude those tags now. As an example, I just did a search for "mental health -ai", and used the filter option "Exclude Generative AI" and I'm still getting a bunch low-quality generative-ai assets in my results.

                    I do not believe that the "rules" have been changed. The requirements are laid out on this page, which has not been updated since January:

                      Great news! This will dramatically reduce the number of complaints from Buyers who do NOT want to have to sift through AI assets to find what they're looking for. Unfortunately, with so many improperly titled and keyworded AI assets already in the database, Generative AI assets continue to turn up in search results even when the Filter is selected.

                        More good news, Jill! We have done a deep analysis on photos and illustrations not tagged by contributors as generative AI and have included those detected as AI in the filter. It should be much better for those wishing to eliminated generative AI content from their search results. We are constantly working to improve the Adobe Stock experience for everyone!

                         

                        Thanks,

                          That's good to hear! Buyers will really appreciate it.
