Bing Image Creator 'against content policy' error frustrating some users (workaround inside)

In the realm of AI-powered tools and innovative technologies, Bing Image Creator stands out as a promising platform that lets users unleash their creativity by generating images based on textual descriptions.

Powered by an advanced version of the DALL∙E model, developed in collaboration with OpenAI, Bing Image Creator has garnered considerable attention and excitement from users eager to explore its creative potential.

However, there seems to be an issue plaguing the Bing Image Creator preventing users from fully experiencing the platform’s remarkable capabilities (1,2,3,4).

Reports have been surfacing from frustrated users who claim that whenever they attempt to generate an image using the tool, they are greeted with an ‘against content policy’ error message.

These policies are in place to maintain a safe, respectful, and inclusive online environment for users worldwide.

However, what has been particularly confounding for affected users is the fact that they believe their prompts are inoffensive and are compliant with Bing’s content policy.

They assert that they have not used explicit or inappropriate language in their descriptions, leading to confusion about the reason for the error.

@bing Bing Image Creator is just not working today. Anything I type is just being detected as harmful content. EVEN A SIMPLE APPLE art. Please fix it.

Adding insult to injury, some users have faced temporary bans from using Bing Image Creator for an hour after encountering the ‘against content policy’ error.

Think #BingCreate had a breakdown. This prompt was seen as inappropriate and my account has now been suspended for an hour for content policy violations!! I’ll try again later.

Fortunately, some users have discovered a possible workaround that involves using Bing Image Creator on a PC.

As Bing Image Creator continues to evolve and refine its AI algorithms, the Bing team must address this issue promptly and transparently.

Microsoft should listen to user feedback, and implement a necessary fix and uphold the platform’s commitment to provide unparalleled user experience.
