Not sure why my images "violate guidelines" (image depicts children)

I attempted to generate video from two different photos of a man and his mother and a family walking in the woods. Both were immediately rejected. Then I used Firefly to generate an image of a man holding his daughter and tried to use that, but it was also rejected. I've attached these images here. I can find no reason that the system would reject these on a content-level. So any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Hi @Felix3LGato !

 

Thanks for pointing that out. Firefly currently avoids generating videos from images that include children. This is a careful step to make sure the model handles such content responsibly. We know it can be limiting, but it’s part of ensuring safety as the tool improves.

 

Thanks

Im having the same issue, can't generate anything this was such a waste of money. Adobe firefly is a a scam anyone reading this don't bother paying for this you will not be able to generate anything!

I generated an image of a manga girl with long hair using Firefly, and I wanted to animate the hair with the video generation. However, when I upload my image and start the generation, a message appears saying that the uploaded image does not comply with Firefly's guidelines. I find it strange that you allow me to generate an image, only to then tell me that it doesn't meet your parameters.

Hello @Michele22690682924h,

 

It is a limitation of the Firefly video beta that it will not generate videos from keyframes containing children.

We can't process this prompt because the reference image
doesn't meet our User Guidelines. You can upload another
image and try again.

 

I used an illustration of kids and gifts and toys, and father and baby smiling at each other. what is the wrong with your ai detection?

Hello @elygraf,

Thank you for your message. I am sorry you are having this problem. 

The beta version of image to video will not generate videos from images containing children. That is why it would not generate the videos. It is a cautious approach to ensure the model is ready for depicting children from images.

Systématiquement, l'interface indique :

Nous ne pouvons pas traiter ce prompt car l’image de référence

Il s'agit pourtant d'une simple photo de portrait famille pour laquelle j'ai évidemment tous les droits d'utilisation... je ne comprends pas pourquoi ça ne fonctionne pas. Merci de revenir vers moi.

Mein hochgeladenes Bild für Image to Video entsprach nicht den Nutzerbedingungen. Es ist aber weder angsteinflößend, verstörend, pornografisch oder sonsitiges.

I kept trying to have Firefly generate a video of my younger twin sisters dancing ballet. Today is their birthday and I have a photo of them in their tutus, but Firefly refuses to make the video.  There is NOTHING obscene about the photo. It is of my sisters when they were 10 years old in their tutus.  What gives?

 

It reminds me of Generative Fill when I was trying to fix a blurred finger in a portrait I was editing and it woouldn't allow it because it thought the image was obscene.  

 

Time to adjust your guidleines or make your AI a little smarter.

It's quite impossible to upload anything. There is nothing in the user guidlines that refer to this image. It's just an image of three kids...

Ok ... children can never be a part of Adobe products?

I was trying to bring a few old photographs of my family to life using Firefly today, and noticed that anytime the photograph was either of a child, or included even one child in it, I would get a notification saying that the refernce image didn't meet Adobe's User Guidelines.

 

I own the pictures, so it's not a copyright issue. Is using Firefly to bring any pictures that include children prohibited for now? Or is this just a bug I'm running into?
