Whenever a new thing comes it's always under discussion and which finally makes it mature.
In cards, essential things can be shown as priorities and optimal displays for mobile viewing.

Uploading content in bulk and or single also may be a good point to evaluate in the requirement gathering process. 

Every change comes with some cost so that also needs to consider and every user experience is a new bottleneck for the user experience.

Great method but in need of more consistent standards!

Adaptive cards are generally a great move for any business that wants to create better employee experiences.
Pros: 
-> Write once, deploy everywhere-ish
-> Built-in data-binding
Cons:
-> Misuse across applications

VP of Strategy and Product Management at Nextgen Clearing in Telecommunication3 years ago

Pros...Good UI is hard to pull off and rather than Engineers taking short cuts and forgetting the customer experience, this approach helps them more easily, efficiently and experientially handle various user interactions. Cons...be design, not particularly flexible. Also tends to stop the right thinking when the code is just handed to you.

It's a good declarative way to share common pieces of information/UI. The host system can adapt and style that information to make it look it native to the platform/system.
Big help with composable UIs.
