P: Generated images violate user guidelines

 

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.

Not sure about that. I think a lot of what photographers and AI creators are doing involve women, so it comes across that way. I've had the same thing happen with blank areas, cows, babies, you name it. I don't believe for a minute that this is the issue.

Please, PLEASE loosen up the community guidelines for generative fill. The current system finds all kinds of PG or G-rated items to violate community standards. It's ridiculous and makes the feature much less useful, which is a shame, because it's an awesome feature.

 

On another note, once the feature leaves beta, I do truly hope all the censorship will depart as well. I pay a lot of money for the creative suite, and I do not do this so I can be thwarted and judged by Adobe.

What kind of keywords are getting flagged?

Thanks for your reply, Michael. I don't think it's really about the words in the prompt. I say that because sometimes Photoshop redacts a couple of the generated images for "violating community guidelines," but allows another one to get through. It almost seems as if, if the generated result contains too much skin-like color, then it rejects it. For example, say I've generated a beautiful woman but she has six fingers and no thumb. Maybe I select one of the fingers and ask the generative fill to create a thumb here. Sometimes some of those queries get rejected. There's absolutely nothing sexual about practically any of my asks, but my subjects are often both men and women with some AI-generated flaw. And that's really my point. My requests are in no way sexual, but the AI chokes on them anyway. It's very frustrating! Especially because I know this would be an amazing feature — if only I could consistently use it.

Naw, I'm thinking at this point it's to stop people from taking a model's picture, lassoing the body and telling it to Generate a nude body. My problem was the opposite. I was trying to PUT bikinis on to nude models so I can put them on Social Media.

Doing great! You seem upset that I have an opinion regarding a poorly implemented late-to-market feature-clone? Have a good day! ❤️ 😘

No one actually knows WHAT the bot is generating. Everyone seems to assume it's nudity. Or violence. In fact, it could be generating such visual gibberish that the bot doesn't even know how to interpret it, so it's only resource is to assume it's against the guidelines. And as far as this issue being fixed soon, don't hold your breath. It took the programmers of Midjourney a year to finally get it to create reasonable looking hands. And they still aren't 100% perfect.

Meanwhile, two weeks ago, Photoshop didn't even HAVE this technology and now everyone is getting upset that it doesn't work more often than it does. But no good deed goes unpunished, as they say.

You doing ok @J-D-F? You seem really upset over a first generation public beta.

Incidentally, we can't even discuss problems because culture is so puritanical we censor words like gen i tals and pe nis, which are legitimate real words, aren't slang, and describe something directly related to the issue.

Adobe isn't going to improve interaction or the tool. They will add their me too ai to the next release and then subsequently pretend that fashion, swimsuits, glamour photography, lingerie, sports and fitness don't exist as markets. All of these censored AI tools will be totally eclipsed by tools without guidelines. That is how it has worked for every previous generation of digital tools, Adobe wants to pretend that corn ads aren't 80% of their userbase, or that flat-style clipart and fonts will save them.

Somehow this monstrosity made it through the filters because obviously a cluster of mutant flesh bulbs is more appropriate than the nethers of a statue.

The restrictions are too much, adobe you need to loosen these [cursing removed] restrictions.....all the images i try to work with in the beta keep coming up with error about community guidelines and all my images i try are of fully clothed women and its frustrating. please work on this, better yet quit restricting them in the first place, im a boudour photographer. Please dont be like the "other" and censor what we can edit of our own images.
