Failed QC - Unsuitable material


Recommended Posts

I recently have submitted several Easter-themed images and all of them failed QC because the first one was marked as "Unsuitable material". I carefully checked QC guidelines in the PDF and I am confident that my images do not fall under any of the categories mentioned, including glamour, pornography, or infringement of third-party rights.

Any idea what can be the issue here? The submitted images were AI generated illustrations. I have gone through all of them and can't see any obvious issues that would cause them to fail QC. I have submitted AI generated illustrations before and had them pass the QC successfully. I have attached the image that has failed the QC.

I uploaded some today and they all passed QC.

very strange. I uploaded mine yesterday, and today they rejected with "unsuitable material" then i sent an email and got the reply  "We're no longer accepting any AI content for now. Any further updates will be given in due course."

As I look at your images, the AI I see definitely look like illustrations, not photos.  Judging by search, most people submitting AI have been doing so as photographs, not illustrations.

 

When I do a search for AI generated for illustrations, 49,000 come up. When I search under photographs, 71,000 come up.  AI should never be submitted as a photograph. Originally that is what Alamy had stated, that all AI had to be submitted as illustrations.  I guess they have noticed that more are being submitted as photographs, which is a deception to the clients.

 

So yes, they may have had a customer screaming at them that instead of a photograph, they got an AI image.  So they are curtailing submissions.  At least maybe those that are going in as photos.  Maybe illustrations can still be submitted.

all of my AI submissions have been submitted as illustrations, even the photorealistic ones.

But I have given 4 times as illustration and it’s been Rejected all four times. This means they no longer accept AI generator images. And I also contacted their support team about this and they said that, they no longer accepting AI content for now....

so I think this is clear

I have no idea what´s going on with these AI images. I edit my AI work carefully in ACR and Photoshop, as I do with all my images. But as I said I have no idea at all why my AI images got accepted. But I don´t complain.

Let me know if your next AI submissions will pass the QC
