Firefly generated images are awful

Firefly is absolutely awful. It should be renamed 'Mutation' as that's what I get with every image it generates.

Hey ​@toddeklof 

Prompting is a lot of trial and error. I find deleting images and videos that are not working to help prevent having / getting a bad seed. I do this relatively often as I work. I do notice that starting fresh helps as well. I mean taking a project I am working on and closing the tab when I start to get a bad seed.

I thought I'd give it another go to see if it has improved. Here's the prompt I gave it...
'A ginger cat and a black greyhound looking out over a meadow'

This is what I got 😞

Why has the cat got two tails and the dog got a leg missing?

Can't believe we're paying money for this. Unbelievable.

I'm following a tutorial on Dall-E 2 from June 2023 and even today 10 months forward I cannot get the similar quality output from Firefly v2. It's so far behind the curve at this point 😞

Prompt:

 

 

A classy young woman with long blonde hair in early 20s in stylish dress and wide hat posing with shopping bags in central Paris, Eiffel tower and green park in the background in the morning, inviting warm romantic tones.

 

 

Just a few of the heavily distorted generations:

 

 

Also, not only did this prompt produce distorted figures, it also did not meet the "community guidelines". Can anyone illuminate which part was that offensive that breached this mysterious guidline? Tried to remove all these words one by one – classy, stylish, romantic, young, early 20s, posing, woman, skirt, all of which caused the error message "one or more word did not meet the community guidlines". I still managed to produce this error message even I was finally left with this heavily handicapped prompt:

 

 

A person with hair in clothing and wide hat with shopping bags in central Paris, Eiffel tower and green park in the background in the morning, inviting warm tones

 

 

And even this produced very bad results:

Some scary and gravity defying results in those images! I've no idea why those descriptive words breach community guidelines. Maybe it's a combination of words from the list it doesn't like - Young, Skirt, Posing. I don't know.

This is a typical example. I kept the instruction really simple - 'People playing soccer'.

What it created for me was two players. The man on the left isn't too bad but the guy next to him has 3 legs and one eye. His hand is deformed, the ball isn't round, there's a strange shadow cast from nothing. Just unusable.

I'm assuming from the lack of replies that we're all in agreement. Firefly isn't quite where it needs to be?!


Hey! I did a couple of test prompts on my side. I did provide feedback on the image that did not meet my standards. This is something that is being worked on. Please add your vote here as well: P: Photo realistic humans not optimal

Here is the feedback I shared on the images:
