They dont need to charge you $10. They just drop the minimum to $.05 . Wallah.

No. We did that in 2004. It was called ShutterPoint or something. You can tell how well that worked out.

It would be pointless to ask of they were all a.i.
Not really. If the point would be to show you that your preconceptions about AI imagery are false, and that they're good enough to pass. Or whatver.

The second paragraph has nothing to do with the first.

AI Generated Imagery, Is It OK To Sell It?
You can't sell them. This is copyright infringement. You can not take someone else's work and redo it without the permission of the author. And even more so you can not sell this work later as your own.
Tell us you dont understand AI imagery without telling us.

I go to vecteezy to find free clip art for personal projects. I ignore any paid advertising placement completely.

Why isn't the original model release valid? Model releases don't expire.
This. Theres no need at all for a new release.

Almost full time (still do some commission work). Stock earnings rolling months from February 2022 to 2023 (last completely reported month) $162,000 down from a $168,500 high rolling to April 2022.
That's your gross, right? What's the net, after expenses...

Wow. March was the worst month on Shutterstock since the very first month I started, Jan 2014.

Firefly has been fun to play with, and it's amazing that conceptually it gets the prompt to image pretty correct, but the actual results are atrocious in most cases. Just on basic stock things. Distorted balls, the extra or missing fingers we all love, garbled looking money, odd geometric snowflakes, etc.

Everything generated with firefly can be used safely and uploaded as ai content. That is fantastic!!
But not during beta.
Cant wait to hear the compensation model. UBI is a good way to look at it. Technology that displaces workers/creatives should help to fund those displaced so they can continue to provide alternatives.

If the IRS thinks you didnt pay taxes on a 1099, they will be sending you a letter. Not sure why you think otherwise.
Income isnt in any way reported per agency with 1099s. Its all just income. Its 8 agencies, its assignment work. Its headshots. Its just a big pot of income. None of the agencies could send you a 1099 and it wouldnt matter as long as you report what you received.

I do my taxes by the cash method. Its what comes into my account during the year. I dont really care what any of the agencies report.
The IRS will care. If an agency reports something that you don't report, they're going to be asking you some questions.
No, they wont.

Anyone know when this is going to be fixed? I need to file my taxes.
Dont you record the payments you receive? You dont actually need a 1099 in hand.

also - most likely they are 'chemtrails' (not contrails). depends on altitude and length, and whether it dissipates into a cloud (in which case its a chemtrail).
the ones spraying chemicals in the sky are most likely military, although sometimes they go in aircraft that looks like regular aircraft.
Oh honey, we gots a live one here! Lol. To the OP, youre likely fine as you probably cant identify the aircraft or company.
