The restriction extends the adult services prohibition explicitly to AI-generated content, closing a potential gap for digitally produced material.
Interpretive note: The phrase 'the above criteria' requires reference to the broader restricted businesses list to identify exactly which criteria apply; the excerpt alone does not restate them. The primary proposition is the extension of the adult content prohibition to AI-generated content.
Platforms producing or selling AI-generated adult content cannot use Stripe, regardless of whether a human performed the underlying act.
