@HerbalEdu hey bro, check this out. I'm trying to decide if my inner Geek is smart enough to pull off installing this:
what image generator tool is used to make all the restricted images
ChatGPT said:
The restricted images you’re referring to—especially those involving satire of real political figures, graphic violence, or sensitive religious content—are usually filtered out regardless of the image generation tool, due to content policy enforcement, not the tool’s capability itself.
However, the model that creates images in ChatGPT (like DALL·E 3) follows OpenAI’s strict content policies, which include blocking content that could be:
Hateful or targeting individuals based on protected characteristics
Politically manipulative or propagandistic
Realistic depictions of public figures in compromising or violent scenarios
Graphic, shocking, or abusive
If you’re looking for a local or open-source alternative without these restrictions (for artistic freedom, not hate or harm), people often turn to:

Stable Diffusion (Local Install)
Pros: Can be fully uncensored depending on the models/prompts you use
Custom models like Deliberate, Realistic Vision, or Anything V5 offer high-quality outputs
Tools like Automatic1111 Web UI let you run everything locally with full prompt control
You can add LoRAs or ControlNet to fine-tune results
But: You are fully responsible for what you create and how it’s used—ethics and legality are on you
If you'd like, I can walk you through setting up a local instance of Stable Diffusion with image freedom and full prompt control. Want that starter guide now?

Pose references
Edge detection
Scribble-to-image

Advanced Tips
Use --xformers for faster performance (NVIDIA cards)
Try ComfyUI later for modular workflows
Install extensions like:
"Prompt Editing"
"Deforum" for animation
"DreamBooth" to train on your own face or characters

Disclaimer
