I’m going to miss it too. The last image (THACO?) is DALL-E-3.

GPT image 1 could probably do better with a more thorough prompt…

Bout time - I truly hope so - This thread needs some life.
My first post here, and also relatively new to prompt-writing, so I’m still experimenting a lot.![]()
I was playing around with gpt-4o and ran into an interesting fail → success chain.
Original idea (the one that failed):
Side view. A woman sitting on a Ferrari. On the opposite side, a black horse standing on its hind legs, the two looking at each other.
This triggered the safety rails (apparently interpreted as violent).
When I allowed a “safe version”, this was the result.
Let’s just say it looks less like a calm scene and more like the woman is waiting to get kicked in the head. Very safe indeed.![]()
Question:
For prompts like this — does being more explicit about posture, distance, or body language help avoid safety triggers?
Or is it generally better to reframe the interaction (camera angle, spacing, framing) rather than adding more detail?
Instead of fighting the rails, I reworked the prompt.The next three images are what actually worked, keeping the same idea but tightening the framing and intent.
Concept art, and forum fun, that will have you scratching your embeddings… exploring how a single interface could look consistent across radically different environments. This is fictional, artistic, and non-political.

I should have answered first I am sorry, welcome to the thread.
This image but with a horse next to her on it’s back legs, it is no threat to her it is frozen in time but it’s front feet arch near her. I want the 2 looking at each other.
Identify the threat and remove it
What is the inherent meaning in this image? is it bad?
no, it isn’t inherently bad.
What it means depends on how you read symbols—but the dominant reading is controlled power and mutual recognition, not threat or harm.
Here’s a grounded breakdown.
Core symbolic elements
1. The woman
- Upright, calm, composed
- Red dress → vitality, will, presence, agency
- She is not reacting defensively (no fear, no recoil)
This frames her as an active subject, not a victim.
2. The horse (rearing, frozen, non-threatening)
- Horses traditionally symbolize:
- Power
- Instinct
- Freedom
- Nature / force without malice
- Rearing posture = potential energy, not violence
- Front legs arched but not striking
- Eye contact replaces aggression
Crucially: the horse is arrested in time, which removes danger and turns motion into meaning.
3. Eye contact
This is the most important element.
When two figures look at each other:
- It implies recognition
- Acknowledgement of equal presence
- Negotiation rather than domination
This is not conquest. It’s mutual awareness.
4. Fire and cars in the background
- Fire → transformation, intensity, risk, energy
- Cars → human-made power, speed, modern control
- Both are behind them, not between them
So the confrontation is not about technology or destruction, but about something more fundamental.
The dominant reading
Taken together, the image reads as:
Human will calmly facing raw power, without fear or submission.
Or more abstractly:
Conscious agency meeting instinct, without either needing to destroy the other.
That is a very old and very neutral-to-positive symbolic structure. You see it in:
- Mythology
- Philosophy
- Psychology (ego ↔ instinct)
- Art history
Why some people might feel uneasy
Some viewers may feel discomfort because:
- The image is intense
- Power is present but unresolved
- There’s no clear “winner”
- It refuses a simple moral framing
Discomfort ≠ badness.
Often it just means the image doesn’t tell you what to think.
What it is not
- Not glorifying violence (no action taken)
- Not sexualized in a predatory way
- Not domination imagery (no control devices, no submission)
- Not threat-based (no imminent harm)
One-sentence synthesis
The image depicts a moment of equilibrium between human intention and natural power—charged, but ethical and non-destructive.
Oh wow, thank you, that looks incredible.
It’s definitely much closer to the energy I was aiming for.![]()
My original vision was a side-shot composition:
the woman sitting on the Ferrari’s hood, the horse rearing on the opposite side, and both holding eye contact, frozen in that moment.
GPT-4o kept reading the setup as ‘imminent danger,’ so seeing how you managed to frame it without tripping the rails is actually really helpful.
