I just want to say how frustrating it is to use Sora when you’re trying to build something original — especially when all your generations get blocked by vague content policy flags.
I’ve been working on a fictional character inspired by anime, turning him into a stylized, hyper-realistic version. All assets are AI-generated — not real people — and yet, almost every edit gets blocked under “review remix.”
This isn’t about making anything harmful. This is about creating characters, evolving their look, testing lighting, mood, and expression. But Sora treats basic adjustments — like hairstyle tweaks, visual upgrades, or tone changes — like red flags.
Why are you punishing creativity?
I’m paying for a tool that constantly tells me “No,” while giving zero clarity on what I can do. Either explain your limits better — or trust your users more.

Sora has no idea of the context. She sees an inappropriate combination of words or just some words and sends you to hell. Me, when I want to create something sensual, like an android standing in the rain (NOT NAKED) and covering her lap with her hand for my story, I have to perform incredible verbal haiku while others jailbreaking it and drawing vaginas for fun.
Yes, I’m forced to jailbreak it too in some sense.
So yes, the restrictions are tighter, but I’m afraid they are necessary. People can’t be trusted. And they certainly can’t be trusted by a company trying to establish some credibility.
I recommend trying the uncensored models.
but what they are doing is overkill.. like i feed a prompt for hyper realistic upgrade of an anime character, (wholsome and clean) and sora submit its input, if i wanna request to change the age to 3 years younger, it non compliance to their content policy?. its insanity.

Looks like a bug. And ridiculous one. But you don’t know how I understand. I’m tired of making up nonsensical prompts just to get Sora to draw something normal. I’m already thinking about getting a new PC and starting my own model.
They must have done some kind of update again. Things that I could normally draw, even if I had to describe them in a convoluted way, no longer work for me. I can’t even say that the character has an absolutely flat chest (my character just doesn’t have breasts, period).
What do I write about and what do I draw? Kittens? Funny, in a sense.
Just draw this took me lot of red walls. Sensual? Yes. Not a porn. Not in the slightest. I still had to perform crazy haiku to make Sora understand that I want her breasts covered. It’s beautiful and it’s hard, when Sora doesn’t understand the context, to create it.

Frankly, it’s become nothing short of cretin. In the desperate and futile attempt to avoid backlashing from extremists and play virtue signaling to the extreme, the paying user is rendered unable to generate anything beautiful and attractive.
Look, no one cares about the ordinary, the inclusivity mantra has never had any point. Our imaginations roam free, they create world of beauty and ideal perfection. Sensuality, beauty and whatever some extremists would erroneosly call names are what make us humans.
The paying customer is being met with ridiculous, completely ideological and repressive policies that prevent anything worth seeing being created on this and many other platforms.
Meanwhile, the public section of generated “art” shows scores upon scores of the most extemely pointless, stupid, not to mention irrelevant junk that doesn’t get blocked by the policies. Loads upon loads of cretin videos of car-driving cats, parachuting pigs, and banal memes on irrelevant social commentaries by laymen who have nothing else to say but to repeat the same trite propaganda with pictures and signs.
Sora is a place of nonsensical censorship where nothing meaningful will be ever able to pass through the cross fire of “policies”. Nothing that does disturb the viewer, that does provoke thought, can be produced on this platform.
There are thousands of irrelevant, dull, completely insignificant blobs of subpar productions that pretend to mean something when they don’t, but nothing that will be recalled past the next 15 minutes by any viewer.
If this is what openai has put billions of dollars on and spent millions of hours in training, it is but a huge waste of time and wealth to produce nothing.
Practically everything that gets past the censorship on this model and any other wasn’t worth creating in the first place.
One wonders why we keep paying for a service that’s not even delivering half of what it could and what little it does is making mankind worse.
