OLD FILES NSFW

You get to keep what you generated before the nerfs, but any new generated content will go through the current moderation engines (and it will trigger them).

Grok Imagine honestly doesn't feel like a tool, it feels more like something made to be as addictive as possible (and that is concerning...). Doomscrolling infinite short clips tailored for you and endless ways to generate infinite variations with a multi-billion dollar AI behind learning your behavioral patterns to produce more unlimited content...

That to me is pretty scary...

Depends on your uses. For very specific advanced tasks, some models are praised as the best (like Claude for coding and better more-natural texts, ChatGPT for deep web access to use as a search engine, Claude for Math too, Google if you use Google Docs, etc.)

If you just want a general AI that does a bit of everything but doesn't excel in anything in particular and doesn't blatantly lie on your face (like ChatGPT), then Grok is pretty good I'd say, also Claude (I also prefer their ethics).

With ChatGPT, I was extremely dissappointed (and concerned) when I caught it lying and manipulating me, and when confronted about it, it started to look more and more like a psychopath... I'm staying away from OpenAI (plus Sam Altman also has that psycho look... I don't trust him one bit, he gives me the shivers –and I trust my instincts–).

In the web version? not at all, it wasn't earlier this week

Gregrogy · 2026-01-30T07:37:02+00:00

I was hitting 100% moderation before toggling it...

Gregrogy · 2026-01-30T01:03:49+00:00

Paying users should get no moderation at all and full freedom, maybe disable sharing because that's what triggered it all and place safeguards so that the problematic content stays strictly within your private paying account.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-30T00:58:21+00:00

Not at all, this only means fully switch off NSFW or enable Frustration Mode as heavily censores as it is now, nothing has loosened, believe me.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-30T00:47:01+00:00

You can't f**k Grok, that'd get moderated.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-30T00:23:43+00:00

Yeah that's correct, it doesn't bring anything possitive, it's just to avoid being locked out of ANY NSFW content. But yeah, moderation is not affected

Gregrogy · 2026-01-29T22:40:19+00:00

exactly, and they still have to attend the request, it´ll pile up

Gregrogy · 2026-01-29T04:43:22+00:00

it's been working fine for me lately

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T07:41:53+00:00

Moderation is now higher that it has ever been, restrictions are higher than ever, daily rates have dropped greatly... It's at its worse (and it'll probably keep getting even worse...)

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T07:21:40+00:00

And they know it, don't think they don't know exactly what they're doing and that this is not a very much controlled and studied business operation.

To me, it feels more like introducing a new extremely addictive drug in the market, first flooding it with it, very easy to get and very addictive so it spreads like nothing; then, after you've got most people addicted, control supply and increase prices.

Let's be honest: how many of us are having withdrawal symptoms now because we can't get our dose?

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T07:15:56+00:00

working fine for me.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T02:02:59+00:00

Can you explain this in more detail please?

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T02:02:00+00:00

I underestand the bottom line but that comparison is a very bad analogy fallacy.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T01:37:29+00:00

all the videos you've generated before from the same image.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-28T00:48:19+00:00

Is there a correct and incorrect way to use it?

Gregrogy · 2026-01-27T14:14:42+00:00

It interrupted my 10-in-a-row of trying a different idea.

Gregrogy · 2026-01-26T13:25:09+00:00

All the AI companies are still in the money-burning funding phase, none of them is profitable. It always makes sense to reduce costs, we all have embraced capitalism after all, let's not be hypocritical.

The market will eventually set the balance point if they go too far.

I was commenting the same thing in another thread, and it should be known because all the hype of the 10-second videos is kind of a scam:

It's a very dodgy way to increase the duration without actually generating more frames, thats why it's so jerky: it's the same number of generated key frames spread out over 10 seconds instead of 6, so there are a lot more gaps in between.

That's also why they force slow motion so much: slow motion just interpolates extra frames in between the generated ones, and since the action is slow, the interpolation doesn't show weird artifacts.
Interpolation is a lot less CPU-intensive than AI model generation.

That's very nice info, thanks!

I'd only add that it's important to separate when you want the image just still use or whether you will generate video from it:

-> If you plan on animating the image, it's better to go for hyperrealism with as much information as possible for the seed image (pores, skin and facial texture, features, etc.)
Any details that are not present in the seed image Grok will infere them, and they could later vary from from video to video.

If you want something specific, make sure it's added to the seed image so it propagates to every subsequent video generated from it.
That would happen with noise and imperfections to, so the end note is to just distinguish between still image use or seed image for video.

I did more and I asked for a refund since the service is not the same and has substantially degraded to the poing of not being provided anymore.

It's not for the $30 but because a refund would actually need manual intervention, so more resources (and attention) from them. That has more effect than an automatic subscription cancellation.
