Found it while looking for some art for my home D&D game (ergo; fair use). If I follow the link it gives an error 404 on the adobe stock photo website, so either they removed it or I need to be logged in. This is the url that duckduckgo gave me: https://stock.adobe.com/images/sentinel-of-the-realm-a-fierce-female-guard-stands-ready-in-this-stunning-dndfront-portraitfantasy-generative-ai-generative-ai/571643612. If someone with an adobe account is willing to check if this is actually still for sale, I'd be very grateful!
Adobe is selling AI slop as stock photos now

You'd think it'd be manually retouched or improved in some way but no, it's the sloppiest slop that ever slopped. No effort whatsoever to make it even halfway decent.

Its soooo bad holy shit. Like this is some 2020 first generation AI slop

If it's AI, it's copyright-free so not only is it fair use to do what you want with it, you can even profit from it if you feel like it.

I do love the hair sprouting right from the eyeball. That's some Cronenberg body distortion right there.

The hovering bejeweled metal collar that was forged around her is just so badass that a human couldn't have thought to draw it

Looking closer at the eyes, the left one has a distorted iris, and the right's bottom lid could be cancerous.

They've been doing that pretty much since the beginning back when this first started coming out. A few YouTubers I watch said they had to stop using Adobe's stock photos a few years back because they didn't wanna accidentally use AI.

Just to clarify, these are the requirements to sell stock imagery via Adobe Stock. They aren't stringent whatsoever (I love that they advertise "33% royalties" like that's not "we take 66% for publicity and basic infrastructure"), so it's not like this uploader was some trusted partner. The fact OP found it and then quickly got a 404 is, to me, actually a decent sign that slop like this isn't welcome there.
Aside: I'm yearning for Hbomberguy's video on Adobe and hopefully watching that madman tear them a new asshole.

Surely they won't exhibit copyright on the famously uncopyrightable thing

Yeah no doubt this is probably old news for some, but since I'm not in the habit of browsing stock photos, it took a bit longer for me :)

This and other slop generators have made it incredibly difficult to find token/character art for virtual TTRPGs that isn't garbage. Fortunately, I'm a creative with shitty art skills and made my own.

At least they have the decency to tag it in the url (twice, it seems). Makes it easier to block wholesale.

Why I now use Krita. And make sure the image is not generated.

The clearest proof that it's AI is the random hair on her face
Blubber28@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 135d
I thought that was some sort of scar/tattoo initially, but yeah it looks to be an interpretation of hair. For me the first giveaway was the neck protection thingy, it is asymmetrical, has nonsensical half-existing symbols, and it has a pointy thing on the right.
