Honestly, this sort of thing is what’s killing any sort of enjoyment and progress of these platforms. Between the INCREDIBLY harsh censorship that they apply and injecting their own spin on things like this, it’s nigh on impossible to get a good result these days.
I want the tool to just do its fucking job. And if I specifically ask for a thing, just give me that. I don’t mind it injecting a bit of diversity in say, a crowd scene - but it’s also doing it in places where it’s simply not appropriate and not what I asked for.
It’s even more annoying that you can’t even PAY to get rid of these restrictions and filters. I’d gladly pay to use one if it didn’t censor any prompt to death…
The thing is, if it's injecting diversity into a place where there shouldn't have been diversity, this can usually be fixed by specifying better in the next prompt. Not by writing ragebait articles about it.
But yeah, I'd also be happy to be able to use an unhinged LLM once in a while.
Taking responsibility of how I use the tools that I use? How dare you.
