P: Regional bias in images

Muestra todas las imágenes con un notorio sesgo regional. En mi país no todos viven en el campo y todas las imágenes me las muestra como si estuvieran en el campo. Si especifico que salga en la ciudad, ignora mi directiva y sigue poniendo escenarios en el campo. Dejen de esteriotipar.

Otro ejemplo, cuando pongo teatro lleno, sigue mostrando un teatro en los andes o campo y vacío. Pongo teatro cerrado y lo hace abierto y adivinen que... en el campo a pesar que le pongo en la ciudad.

 

Pago por este servicio. Exijo que al menos funcione bien

Al usar Adobe firefly, por más que pongo un prompt detallados con lo que estoy buscando, todas las imagenes que aparecen son de mujeres, hombres o chicos con trajes originarios o estética peruana antigua.
Pasa hasta cuando pongo imagenes referentes, firefly hace esto, no respetando los prompts.
NO deberían poner esas cualidades automáticamente en las búsquedas de imagenes, por más que esté en esa región. Ya que mis trabajos o mis búsquedas muchas veces no son para este mercado, y si lo fueran es una vista muy naif de Perú.
Como usuario de AI estoy completamente decepcionado,  y hacen que esta herramienta sea obsoleta, irrita y vuelve tedioso su uso. Espero una respuesta rápida de parte de su equipo.

This issue has been discussed in these threads:

 

Union Jack appearing in images 

Images including people are severely culturally out of touch 

 

Adobe basically had three choices:

  • Make everyone look the same (so unlike a large percentage of the user base)
  • Have every image have a diversity of people who appear to be from many locations
  • Create people who appear to be closest to the region/location where the user is

 

The decision Adobe made is to try to make results appear more culturally relevant based on where the user is located. There are advantages and disadvantages of doing that, and in some cases, the results can be far from what you are looking for. You can change your prompts to be more descriptive of the people and objects to override that region/culture behaviour. It would be nice for Adobe to allow this to be disabled or overridden with another location/region or completely diverse subjects.

 

This can be overridden by specifying regions/cultures/races in the prompt.

Hi Everyone


I live in Switzerland and love using Firefly, but it keeps making everything Swiss! Every person is wearing traditional Swiss outfits making them look like they are up every morning at 5 a.m. to yodle in the mountains, which are always featured in the backgrounds. I live in the city and nobody dresses like this in the entire country except a poor few souls on national day. Gahhh! Even though it's a tiny bit hilarious that I was trying to generate photos of stand-up comedians and they were dressed like cowherds (see attachment). Is there any way to deactivate this feature?

 

Thanks!

Hi There


Thank you for taking the time to respond, and thanks for the links, I was trying to search for this with keywords like "national" but didn't get anywhere. Okay, so there's no real way to turn it off. It's really persistant, it takes a lot of creative prompting to get past the stereotypes (and I mean, making it regional is one thing, but this is a Switzerland that only exists in picture books). Even when I try to place people in a corporate environment, there are the Alps peaking in through the windows. I guess we it's early days though, and like I said, in one way it's rather amusing.

 

Have a nice weekend!
