I have files that are waiting 5 days for inspection.
That wasn't situation before.
They were accepted/rejected in a 3 days time tops.

Anybody else ?

Review times on Adobe have always been random for me and waiting times longer than 3 days weren't the norm, but do happen from time to time. On Adobe photos also don't get reviewed in chronological order and some take way longer to be reviewed than others. For me it is mostly images on white background that take much longer to be reviewed than others - no idea why.

Ai generated images take much more time to be approved, up to ten days, while traditional photography review is quickly as usual for me, max a couple of days

It usually only takes a day or two for me. Maybe it's because you submitted a large set of images and its taking them longer to process?

Yes, recently reviews have been taking longer than usual. Maybe because of more uploads or less staff if people have left the reviewer position? Anything is a guess, except, yes, slightly slower than in the past.

The current wait time for reviews is around 7-9 days on average. This varies based on the number of assets in the queue.

Thank you for your patience,

Good to know. Is it usually better to submit all the images you have in one go or a few every day? Does it make a difference? Currently, I submit 5 images a day and with these longer review times am thinking if it's better to send all 40-50 images I have at the same time.

I had two last batches of vector illustrations reviewed in 6 and 7 days.

10 days to review files.....It is obvious that Adobe is buried with Ai.

Review times have slowed elsewhere too: iStock, Pond5 and to a lesser extent Shutter.

Not surprising. With AI generated content that can be literally generated within seconds the amount of submitted images must be crazy. And even for the agencies that don't allow AI images like iStock I bet that there are tons of such images submitted where the contributors simply don't label them as AI and try to pass them as their own work.

Review times are so slow that I won't even manage to get half of my Easter related images submitted till Easter.
