AI Video Generation Restrictions: What Seedance 2.5 Might Be Blocking

The host experienced repeated rejections when trying to generate videos with Seedance 2.5, particularly when attempting to use fashion models and product images. Tim Simmons suggested this could be due to the model's judgment of the input, potential product branding, or its detection of real people or recognizable figures, indicating potential content restrictions.

I have been rejected a lot here, Tim. And I don't think it's because I'm not model material. I think there are still significant things you cannot generate in this model. Has that been your experience?
Host
Uh, not to, I haven't run into that too much. But a lot of the stuff that I tend to generate is, uh, uh, synthetically originated, uh, should we say.
Tim Simmons
Um, and then the other side of that, if there's any kind of product branding in there, uh, or if it sees it as, uh, uh, a real person, uh, or if any one of those super model dudes, uh, have any kind of famousness or anything.
