I'm not sure why you're being downvoted because I think this is a misconception that's worth clearing up. There is no aspect of what I'm doing that is lewd or lewd adjacent. I just want control of a character's face for making art for an open source game. While I do not totally understand what specific decisions Flux made that would make their model weak in the regard of specifying the appearance of someone's face, one thing is clear: the humanities people are right, this is like a great example of how censorship and Big Prude has impacted artmaking.
It is actually making it harder to use the technology to represent women characters, which is so ironic. That said, I could just lEaRn tO dRaW or pAy aN aRtIsT right? The discourse around this is so shitty.
I appreciate that you think downvotes shouldn't be used so liberally on this site (i.e. purely for disagreement). I _have_ checked this comment somewhat rigorously since I posted it and it's only ever hovered at around 1-2 points, but never below 0. So not sure what you're referring to.
In any case, I believe that you're not generating lewd photos (I hope you don't blame me too much for being surprised though, it's _incredibly_ common). I still imagine the reason you're having trouble though is _because_ such descriptions are relatively adjacent enough for whatever censoring measures they used to nerf lewd outputs.
Censorship is kinda bullshit. But, it's a very expensive toy that they have given away for free (the lesser models, anyway). You can use a LORA (or hell, train your own presumably million-dollar model) to remove these restrictions.
It's more frustrating when you're paying for it and it's behind an API you have no control over. Which, I realize BFL is doing for their pro model - but this isn't anywhere near as egregious as, say, the level of censoring done behind the API for the DALL-E models. And, at the very least it is understandable from a _company_ perspective. They have both legal and public relations concerns to manage. To say that they should just ignore those facets of running a company feels a little entitled to me.
