Edit: it is AI generated, completely missed the genAI tag on the Adobe Stock website, and [4] is not a ton like I thought, it's 307kg

It's listed on Adobe Stock photos[1]

I did find other similar photos[2][3] so it looks like it's an actual thing that exists. Actually found a listing for a 1 metric ton roll of it[4].

The Adobe stock photos link says its generated.

Holy shit. Ok I'm gonna make an ai to feed generated prompts into a generative AI, let it run for a week and sell the mountain of slop as stock photos.

Do it. You either get that cheese or they stop being shit.

[2] is ai generated or so it says. [4] is real but not as big, and not quite a ton, it says '307kg'.
