Image Generation Fails to Exclude Organic and Man-Made Element

Subject: Image Generation Fails to Exclude Organic and Man-Made Elements Despite Explicit Instructions

Dear OpenAI Support Team,

I am reporting a repeated failure in DALL·E’s ability to generate a purely abstract image without unintended organic or man-made elements, despite detailed and strict instructions.

I requested an abstract digital painting representing a headache, explicitly requiring:

No faces, body parts, or organic shapes

No man-made objects or structures

Only chaotic energy patterns, jagged fractals, and turbulent light waves

Despite multiple refinement attempts—including instructions for the system to internally review its dataset to eliminate problematic elements—the generated images still contained unintended facial and bodily structures.

This suggests:

  1. A bias in the training data that prioritizes human-related imagery when interpreting conceptual prompts.

  2. Inadequate dataset filtering before generation, leading to persistent organic forms.

  3. A lack of strict enforcement of negative constraints, making it difficult to achieve true non-representational abstraction.

I request that OpenAI:

Investigate why DALL·E cannot fully comply with strict non-organic, non-man-made constraints.

Improve pre-generation filtering to eliminate unintended organic elements.

Provide users with enhanced controls to refine and steer generation away from undesired formations.

Please let me know if there is a reference or case number for this issue. I am happy to provide additional details if needed.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
