Their main application appears to be taking blog posts and internal memos and making them three times longer and use ten times the bandwidth to convey no more information. So exactly the application AI is ‘good’ at.

If anything stock image websites are even worse at this then AI. With AI you come up with an image idea, then try to make the AI produce something close to it. With stock images you come up with an image idea, then hope some photographer had a similar idea and uploaded it to a stock website.
