I am not even trying to make the stuff that internet calls “nsfw”.

For example, i try to make a female character. Ai always portrays it with huge breasts. But as soon as i add “small breast” or “moderate breast size”, Dall-e says “I encountered issues generating the updated image based on your specific requests”, Midjourney says “wow, forbidden word used, don’t do that!”. How can i depict a human if certain body parts can’t be named? It’s not like i am trying to remove clothing from those parts of the body…

I need an image of public toilett on the modern city street. Just a door, no humans, nothing else. But every time after generating image Bing says “unsafe image contents detected, unable to display”. Why do you put unsafe content in the image in first place? You can just not use that kind of images when training a model. And what the hell do you put into OUTDOOR part of public toilett to make it unsafe?

A forest? Ok. A forest with spiders? Ok. A burning forest with burning spiders? Unsafe image contents detected! I guess it can offend a Spiderman, or something.

Most types of violence is also a no-no, even if it’s something like a painting depicting medieval battle, or police attacking the protestors. How can someone expect people to not want to create art based on conflicts of past and present? Simply typing “war” in Bing, without any other words are leading to “unsafe image detected”.

Often i can’t even guess what word is causing the problem since i can’t even imagine how any of the words i use could be turned into “unsafe” image.

And it’s very annoying, it feels like walking on mine field when generating images, when every step can trigger the censoring protocol and waste my time. We are not in kindergarden, so why all of this things that limit creative process so much exist in pretty much any AI that generates images?

And it’s a whole other questions on why companies even fear so much to have a fully uncensored image generation tools in first place. Porn exists in every country of the world, even in backwards advancing ones who forbid it. It also was one of the key factors why certain data storage formats sucseeded, so even just having separate, uncensored AI with age limitation for users could make those companies insanely rich.

But they not only ignoring all potential profit from that (that’s really weird since usually corporates would do anything for bigger profit), but even put a lot of effort to create so much restricting rules that it causes a lot of problems to users who are not even trying to generate nsfw stuff. Why?
