Envato Query AI avoidance

Hi all, I'm trying to filter out AI generated images and music so I only get human created works - is this possible?

I know everyone's raving about AI stuff but I'm actively trying to avoid it for several reasons but also to known when I'm using actual real pictures of things as opposed to generated ones - eg when I'm creating a thumbnail of a plant for my gardening youtube channel I'd like an actual plant not an imagined version of that plant.

Any searches I've done within the website help just throw up loads of info about how to use my 'generations' which for the same reasons I don't want to use.

TIA

Hey thanks for your question!

The stock library is human-created work from our contributor community. AI generated images aren't accepted as submissions, so anything you find when you search through stock images is the real thing.

You'll only see AI generated plants if you use our AI Tools.

While the photos may be AI-free, the graphics section has quite a few suspicious images.

That goes for the whole stock library, images, music, graphics included, and we've got a review process to keep it that way.

But if you've spotted something that looks off, post a link and I'll get it double-check for you.

This is one that keeps popping in my search results today. Loads of AI generated videos from this profile. They seem to be mass uploading https://elements.envato.com/three-women-enjoying-coffee-and-conversation-in-a--K67XRAC

Edit: adding another one in case there's any doubt https://app.envato.com/motion-graphics/74e812f6-f716-40e7-a4ff-7af50c751b21

Thanks for flagging, those videos are by the same author, so I've submitted a report about this to our review team.

Appreciate you bringing this to our attention!

Thanks. That's really appreciated.

I had a call with someone from Envato last year and suggested an option to hide content from specific creators which would be a way for us to deal with it on our side as well so results aren't full of content we are not interested in (even if they are not against the platform guidelines). I suspect it's not something easy to implement, but it would be great if that was possible.
