Midjourney - AI art

What's the drill with Bing (bing.com/create) these days? I used it for the 1st time tonight with the following prompt "create a photo of Lorainne Kelly wearing a dress". Totally benign but it was blocked with a warning prompt to say that I have violated a policy. I read the policies and it doesn't indicate which one I breached. I used the "report" button to report it as a false positive.

I'm still using Automatic 1111 (local server using an RTX 3070) and that's working brilliantly. At Christmas time, I did loads of mock-up prompts of politicians and posted a few in a Christmas thread.

Meanwhile, I have also discovered another online AI art tool called Lexica (lexica.art) and asking it to create a photo of celebs etc (including Lorraine Kelly) never tripped it and it outputted images fine. Seems like Microsoft is running scared?
 
I think a lot of the AI places have banned likenesses to famous people as a blanket approach. The last one that i created which did resemble someone famous was trying a 'spiderman in the style of game of thrones' and it came up with characters that resembled ones from Game of Thrones. Naming specific people will now prompt a warning.
 
I don't think much to Bing's attempt at Lorraine Kelly anyway to be honest. Looks more like a thin Angela Merkel.

First attempt at photo to video, with the first being a photo I took from the Starboard window aboard the Princess Elizabeth Royal yacht in France and the second taken and altered + added the female to a photo I took recently in Canary Wharf London.

Anyone else finding these AI image generators seem to have degraded output lately with stuff much more an impression of what it is supposed to be and less realistic - not sure if due to more limitations being applied and/or to make room for premium paid products. (Not to mention now most will block anything involving names or even anything remotely like controversial keywords).

Anyone bothered trying to get free access to Grok 2? I see various google results claiming free access methods, but not tried anything as yet, is it worth phaffing about? I assume there would be a degree of phaff involved.

Grok just uses Flux which is open source, you can use flux for free instead.
