I think Photoshop does actually have a graphics art ai market plugin, where AI artists can (allegedly) make a bit of money when their stuff is picked out of the catalog. I think the idea is you can grab something like stock assets to mix into your work, but there's so much of it that it might as well be unique

This still sounds like an excuse/non-apology, but it'd be feasible if I thought their company had a moral center at this point

Yeah I'm saying the image in question specifically looks like it was generated from random noise in Stable Diffusion though. Just based on my experience using it, there's a few telltale errors (aside from what's been highlighted by others) which would commonly be unnoticed/ignored by an intermediate user. Things you can't unsee once you learn to see them, like how the model was confused about where the windowsill ends (or whether it's a windowsill or a table beside the window)

Oh yeah, for sure - it also has that trademark out of focus background the newer models tend to use, and the fact that it looks more crisp than it should at that pixel count

I don't believe their excuse, but this could have been in that marketplace under backgrounds... Once I looked at it, it seems like the artist just took the card faces and warped them to line up with the perspective of the scene and called it a day
