20+ days to review / moderate "organic" illustration while Ai s**t is added in a collection on a daily basis by tens of thousands.
Adobe definitely decide to spit on creative people in every possible way.

True but let's face it our days are numbered. Lucky if this business is still around in five years. AI will provide everything they need. AI will replace taxi drivers, most office workers as well.  It's the future and we have to accept it.

This sounds like one of those "smart" posts  - "stay at home save lives"  back in covid bull***t time.

Smart I am not just as my wife lol! I would rather die on the road then live at home scared. Never wore that stupid mask and keep that vaccine away from me. On the AI crap I've seen two of my family members lose their job to AI and some of my friends.

I don't agree with AI and sincerely hope it was or is a fade. 2017 was my best year of earnings in this business and every year I am seeing a drop in revenue yet my uploads increase. AI? Competition? Companies lowering commission---probably a combination of all. 

This is on the Bing main page--

Anyway just my two cents on the world---off to fishing now...

From my experience, it's more about platform priorities, scalable content always moves faster. I also have hand-made work stuck for weeks while simpler stuff gets approved quicker. But from the client side, I still see demand for quality and unique content - they don't fully switch to AI. So it feels more like market split than the end. Do you think platforms might eventually push handmade content as premium again?

Shame on you Adobe.
