P: Generated images violate user guidelines

[Hematita]

So as you can see, it's a PG-13 relatively inoffensive image of a woman in a bunny outfit. The top worked fine, and I was able to complete the top ear, which is cool. When I tried to extend the bottom with generative fill, though, I got this warning. They're just a pair of legs wearing stockings, and I wanted to extend it.

It feels like a false flag - though I could be wrong? I find myself thinking it would do the same for women in swimsuits.

Figured I'd share here.

I've been using Photoshop as both a photomanipulation/ photo montaging artist as a retoucher and as a graphic designer for over 20 years and have recently started to incorporate AI generated images into my flow. I feel like the only circumstance where censorship of Adobe's AI should take place is applying to images uploaded publicly to Adobe's Creative Cloud.

I can see these safeguards being kept in place while generative fill and other AI tools are in beta testing, but in an official release it would be extremely irritating and intrusive to have some pop-up hitting me in the eyes with a content warning when I try to extend the canvas below a clothed person's waist.

Over the years our creations have always been private up until the point when we decide to share them. Yes? Then the same should continue to apply to AI tools in official releases of Adobe products.

[Andrew B. Carson]

Agreed.

using the latest version, trying to add to a portrait photo, that contains a white lady, clothed in a blue dress, no amtter what i do I get a voilating guidlines error, i mean what guideline am i voilating ? with a ai tool like this i would expect it to have zero guidelines since i could be working on a fine art nude photo, i could be working on a photo containing weapons , if photoshop limits those type of photos and excludes them thjen kindly provide me with a list of allowed photos so that I can focus my photography work on those types of photos only

[AndrewBassonZA]

appologies I am anoyed with a fun new tool thats trying to force me to only work on spesiifc types of photos

Hi @AndrewBassonZA try entering a prompt like "extend background" not entering a prompt is giving false failures.

[Dlewis1212]

Thank you so much for sharing this!  It is beyond frustrating.  I get a "User Violation" more than 50% of the time.  Appreciate what Adobe rolled out, but I don't see myself using this much if I can't actually create with it.

Often the generative fill does not work when there are women posing in the photo. He accuses as if I'm violating some guideline, but I'm not violating guidelines. There is no pornography in the image or anything that will offend anyone.

BETA Update today, Maybe a fix 

[Veronika30330093ichg]

So happy to see this posted because I keep getting this error. I've restarted, used lasso tool, marquee, blank prompts for generative fill, commands.  I have a 30 second video of getting the violation warning while using generative fill on flowers, if anyone wants it. 

I'm not sure if this is important or not, but these violations usually pop up after I've been editing for maybe 5-10 minutes, after it has already generated numerous areas similar to the one I got violated on. The exception was this last time when I restarted my computer and attempted to use generative fill on the area that I was last violated on. The violation popped up immediately. 

I am absolutely in LOVE with these new features and can not wait for this stuff to be resolved.

HI @rafaelo69059271 try entering a basic prompt instead of leaving the field blank.

Being a fan of zombie films - not for blood and guts but for the post apocalyptic theme, I thought I could bring them closer to home by taking a photo of the street outside and asking generative AI to put a zombie hoard on it, it tells me the image was removed as it violates guidelines.

I got a work colleague to try the same thing on a garden picture only to get the same thing.

It seems as though the word "zombie" is enough to trigger the AI warning.

Given zombies are part of poular culture, why does Adobe AI not like them?

I managed to get the likes of Bing AI to generate zombie images but only in generic AI generated settings.

Maybe the blood and guts images of zombies might not be suitable but one can generate hoards of zombies without showing blood and guts spewing out. The other AI did a good job of this.

[Jason Toemmes]

Did the update. Used the exact same prompt in the exact same image and received the exact same "Generated images were removed because they violate user guidelines"

[J E L]

New version, no difference (in fact, the results are even worse so far on prompts I used before).

[Sandy Photog]

Trying to fill in the background on an image & my Generative Fill gives me an error message saying "The generated images were removed because they violate user guidelines."  I was able to use it on other images, but this one has repeatedly been blocked.

[J25196076g373]

Ditto - editing flowers and using Generative AI results in "violations".

The false flagging is so ridiculous I also took and uploaded video.

AI should always be limited like in your case. Sensitive, triggering materials, sexual, nudity, etc should always be limited under any circumstances, if you have to/must, you can always use old school method by manual editing ( if you do not have that skill, learn it, it's never too late, and can be useful ) browsing gb after gb for the right image can be "zen" for lost souls xD

[Bakhtiar Uddin]

I think it is essential to limit AI in some cases, especially when it comes to sensitive or triggering materials. AI can be used to create realistic and lifelike images, which can be harmful if used to spread misinformation or exploit people. For example, AI could be used to create fake news articles or to create deep fakes that could be used to damage someone's reputation.

However, I also think AI can be a powerful tool for good. It can be used to create educational content, to help people with disabilities, and to improve our understanding of the world around us. I believe that we need to find a balance between limiting AI and using it for good.

Hi, I've had two instances of the generative fill refusing to continue due to 'not complying with community guidelines'. The first was when I tried to remove a tattoo on a man's chest, and the 2nd was when I tried to extend a tulle skirt to allow an image to sit in a higher position on the page (no skin visible at all). Seems very weird that generative fill is 'policing' content that I produce in the privacy of my own computer. Even if I did want to produce an explicit image (which I don't) what's the problem?
