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.

This issue kind of confirms what I've always theorized. I went over to Firefly and typed "a cow playing a kazoo." Granted, the results were odd in that the instrument themselves looked nothing like a kazoo, but Firefly did in fact make an attempt to create the prompt and I received no violation warning. What I believe is happening with Generative Fill is that the bot creates a result that the bot itself determines is a violation of standards. In other words, it is censoring itself, not you, even though the warning is written in such a way that it blames YOU, and not itself, for attempting to circumvent the standards. But since we aren't able to see those results, I note again that this is only a theory. In short, it's a bug, not censorship, at least in this particular instance.

kazoo is also slang for *ss in the usa, used as, to "take it up the kazoo" ( meaning to suffer something undesired).

I had a picure of a cow I took near Stonehenge. I added a party hat to it because why not (don't ask)? I then wanted to add a kazoo in the cow's mouth. I wrote the word kazoo in the generative fill box and got the following error back.

 

Now, I have never heard of the word kazoo to mean anything other than the (allegedly) musical instrument. , The only thing I can possibly think of is that some eejut doesn't;t know what a kazoo is or thinks it is a euphemism or something. I mean, what if someone genuinely wants to generate a big pair of jugs? Or maybe a giant pair of balls? Are you going to ban every possible innuendo? That's basically 80% of the English language!

I know they are both different animals.  Both still cannot be create no matter what type of photo background is used.  Also, cannot create an Elk animal.  Same error;  "The generated images were removed because they violate user guidelines.  That's 3 animals not in the A.I. database that can't be rendered for some reason.  A major glitch.

I'm happy to report that I've reinstalled Beta 24.7.0 (Windows 10 Pro), and this time, it has been working fine and I haven't had a violation yet! I just tested using penguins (highlighting them here, so you can see the area selected) but I'm not sure if I'm going to give possums a whirl just yet, lol.

Dunno how many times yesterday I'd hands with 6 fingers, and 19 out of 20 were terribly distorted

Maybe we are all not having the right "kind of hands optimal for using Photoshop"!

They look something like this:

Agreed. and that is what you should be using. Despite what YouTubers are trying to tell you, and to some extent Adobe, Generative Fill is not a full-fledged AI application. It is an editing tool. While I do on occasion get the "against user agreement violations," I can get Generative Fill to work for me 100% of the time. But I don't use it do create things...I use it to fix things. To extend borders. To remove objects.  To fill objects (but rearely to replace them with a different object. If you want to experiment with REAL AI apps, there are plenty choose from, including Firefly (athough it is in beta and I suspect it will remain so for some time.

I know YouTubers, to get their kicks and clicks) are touting Generative Fill as the be all and end all of photo editing. It is not. Nor should it be. It is one among an arsenal of tools to edit photographs. Adobe Photoshop is not going to be left behind.

Well if they don't hurry up and sort it they will be left behind. Theres a lot more places offering AI tools now and free.
