Firefly not respecting the prompt

I asked Firefly web to write the text "Viber AI" over a background.

The result was a beautiful background and text design HOWEVER the written text itself was wrong. Here are some examples:

- Viber

- ViberA

- ViberIA

- ViberrA

- Vi   Berai

After 10 minutes of trying to guide the AI using compltetly different sytnax prompt, I just gave up. Apparently it's impossible for the AI to write long text, Firefly just ignores my prompt completely (in respect to the text I asked to add to the image)

 

Attached a certain example of the many I tried

    Thank you for the reply and article!

     

    I'm really surprised text is difficult to get right. I mean just VIBER is done perfectly, but once I added only 2 more simple letters, it broke

    Hello @Yaron37853502dpsk,

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

    While it has gotten better, Firefly (and most other AI image generators) is generally not good at putting exact text from a prompt into an image. Sometimes it is perfect, but usually, it does not get it right.  The best solution is to use Adobe Express or Photoshop to add text in.  The more complicated the angle or perspective of the text, the more likely you will need Photoshop to get what you want.

     

    Please see this article on why generating text in AI image generators is hard:

    If AI image generators are so smart, why do they struggle to write and count?


    Thanks,
