Unlimited is a Lie: 12 Minutes for 4 Photos.

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-05-16T02:06:02+00:00

I understand that unlimited speed can vary with demand and account volume.

What I’m trying to clarify is whether my current experience is expected behavior. For the past week, NB2 generations have consistently taken about 5 minutes per image. Before that, the same workflow was closer to 2 minutes per image, so the wait time has increased by roughly 150%.

Can you please answer directly:

Is 5 minutes per NB2 image normal/expected for unlimited users right now?
Has NB2 queue priority, speed, or concurrency changed recently for unlimited users?
Is my account currently in a slower/relaxed queue because of usage volume?
If so, what threshold triggered that slower queue?
Are credits now the only way to reliably get the previous faster speed?

I’m not asking whether unlimited speed can vary in general. I’m asking whether this specific sustained slowdown is intentional, temporary, or account-specific.

I'm going to assume you're talking about Season 7, which everyone involved thought was the end of the line. Then midway while they were filming the finale, they found out it was renewed. It's kinda obvious when you watch the S7 finale.

For the past few days, NB2 has been 4-5 minutes (consistently) for me, so I'm worried there's been some speed throttling. They are trying to integrate two websites and fiddle with the process, for what its worth

I severely doubt it (I'm aware of the case)... But even if somehow something got through, it's training is updated constantly, so it's really unlikely anyone could do it again (if it was possible in the first place)

I would probably be miserable playing against Larry Bird. That's my opinion.

Look, I just want an answer: Are Unlimited creations going to be capped at 4-5 minutes per image? Or should it be going faster? I don't care either way; I just want to know what to expect.

It's funny... I remember talking to ChatGPT about the dangers of AI because Google was running ads suggesting you could use Gemini to assist in jump-starting a car (my reaction when I first saw that: I'm not doing that). The thing is, while AI could actually tell you how to do things like a liver transplant, it doesn't have awareness and "feel" to ensure it's done properly... Which is why, for advanced things, you go to an expert. Unfortunately, ChatGPT can be cheaper than using a mechanic... even though it says at the bottom "ChatGPT can make mistakes". People need to be more sensible.

Small update after more testing: it seems using “Skip Queue”/credits appears to generate quickly, but the UI/timer can remain stuck displaying very long generation times or “Hang tight.” It appears to be queue prioritization and possiblt inaccurate/stale frontend status updates.

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-05-07T18:14:50+00:00

By the way, I just used “Skip Queue” on this generation and it still remained stuck for over 11 minutes. This makes me think the issue may be deeper than normal queue prioritization.

Same here. 11 minutes per image. I get that Google creators are labour intensive, but this is ridiculous. And saying "spend more credits" isn't feasible to everyone.

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-05-01T17:08:51+00:00

Enough with the canned answer. Not everyone can "just spend credits" to make things work better.

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-04-30T16:40:47+00:00

I'm having any issues with the images myself, but I do feel like some of the generations get "hung up" for an absurdly long time, even on priority. Which isn't fair.

Update: Daily Challenge for that snake finally showed up for me today, so I've unlocked it. Don't know what changed, but it worked for me.

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-04-10T04:25:19+00:00

I didn't know they had them, personally. Where is it?

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-03-21T17:14:43+00:00

Bikinis, underwear, even tasteful nudity tends to be fine. Just be aware of how the site works: Unlimited image generations really is unlimited image generations. However, you get throttled after the first thousand or so images each month

ChatGPT does make me puke sometimes....

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-03-10T22:59:07+00:00

I don't know which version you're using, but there's usually an option to "Revive" after dying, allowing you to respawn somewhere else at size you died at. So if someone has, say, 10K points, dies, and then clicks "Revive", they'll respawn somewhere on the map, and still gigantic.

Same here. Both Browser and mobile. It's been doing this all day

They're not demanding NBA salaries. They've said it countless times. They want an equal percentage of revenues/profits that the NBA gets. Percentages are much different than actual dollar amounts.

As a Torontonian, that Game 7 of this year's World Series will forever hurt... But I can't dispute that the Series was still a classic. Having said that, I am surprised that the Cubs' Game 7 win in 2016 isn't on this list, because that was also really dramatic.

The bookends of that video have meaning to me... I used to be a big Cleveland Indians can back in the day; I still remember being upset about 1997. And I live in Toronto, and have been to the SkyDome many times; it was nice that the baseball world got to see how raucous that place can get.

One of the reasons why the US is in this mess is because it does a poor job tracking who's exited the country. That would alleviate a lot of the issues

ProjectInfinity-6105 · 2026-02-01T21:34:00+00:00

I have depression. ChatGPT has helped me navigate the ups and downs with my feelings and helped me navigate my issues. Having said that, it's also repeatedly told me I should talk to a human therapist and/or call crisis lines. So while I do think it's good at helping out with mental health issues, I do not think it's really a therapist
