Reddit user says ChatGPT image generation got stricter

A Reddit user on r/OpenAI said ChatGPT image generation has started refusing more requests. The user said they were making separated body-part images for sprite rigging in a game animation workflow. They said similar prompts worked before, but now ChatGPT warns that the request may violate violence-related guardrails.

Key points

  • The post claims ChatGPT image generation became stricter in the past few days.
  • The user was trying to make assets for game animation, not a violent scene.
  • The phrase "exploded view" may have been read as violence-related by the system.
  • The user says similar prompts worked well about a week earlier.
  • This is a Reddit report, not an official policy announcement.
