The guidelines for generative fill are stupid and make the feature useless for me

I cannot stand this vague censorship from the generative features. I'm an adult, I dont need adobe deciding what is too much and what isnt. what is even the point of giving us these tools if they are nerfed into being useless. I'm literally editing a photo of a gun the generative fill wont do a single thing to any aspect of the image because images of guns are too much for it and outside the guidelines. this is just so frustrating. At least Gimp is catching up and once there is a good stable diffusion plugin for it, photoshop will be completely obsolete

It's also about managing the bad press that Ai is generating, and protecting their image (which is what Dave said).

I take your point but remember, Adobe isn't setting generative fill limits to censor you, but it sets them for itself i.e. it is deciding, as a company, what image types it is prepared to process and generate, using it's systems, and what it is not.
