I predicted too this move. I think it's necessary for agencies, unavoidable, and others will follow soon.

There will be hard legal wars, but this is the future and nothing will change it.

Now it will be very interesting to see if buyers have will and ability to use the AI feature.
I suspect that, after a first enthusiastic view, most of buyers will find how difficult is to translate in word what they have in mind (assuming that they have in mind a really specific subject)

We'll see. By the way, this step is inevitable

otoh, Microsoft is moving to allow anyone to use DALL-E

I have a free account, am I not "anyone"? I did nothing special except give an email address and have a phone number. Free account and then 15 free a month after I squandered the first 45 just playing around. Or is that different from Open AI?

At the moment the exported files are too small to be accepted but once larger can can be produced i think alit of stock agencies will disappear due to customers subscribing to AI software instead of stock agencies, no need to stock agencies anymore.

As discussed elsewhere and answering your similar conclusion, you can make them larger, also there is outpainting for adding to the images, and some people who are here, have worked in ways to make useful, large images. Topaz is supposed to work just fine.

I still don't see the flood of AI as replacing artists, photographers or all of everything. And I'll repeat, of somewhere just under 100 AI created images, that have been accepted at SS, IS, AL, DT and AS, I have yet to make the first sales. Yes, I could be making stupid crap, total Crapstock, but even at that, one of my backgrounds, just by chance, should have attracted one person who needed what I made using AI as a tool?

ps to the OP, we already are redundant in ourselves and hundreds of millions of stock images. Most are too much like all the rest to make them interesting or in demand.

An interesting side effect of fooling around with Dall-e2 is that it made me appreciate real photography even more.

I'm currently using the technology for quick mockups, but not for the final image production. It's fun and free, so nothing to lose, really.

Totally agree.
I'm using Midjourney, and also sell some AI created images throgh AS, but I'm absolutely sure that in the middle term this tool will give photographers new life: real photography will have higher price and sales, and the market will change surviving to AI creations.
For what I can understand using MJ, the major problems will be for illustrators, not for photographers. And, anyway, to create a good image or illustration, you always need an idea, much more than a tool that can do the job for you
