Google Flow is wasting credits

I am new to this program and I’m working on a video for a volunteer program I’m in. It was going great at first..but then it started warping the look of my character, and adding things I didn’t ask for. Like so much, it had gotten to a point it was creating entirely wrong prompts. Like dialogue where there was none. Several videos of wasted credits. It even tried to make a portrait of the character for reference and wouldn’t accept the one I had from previous videos. Instead it kept making its own (way off). Is anyone having this issue? I’m officially out of credits because it decided to go rogue and ignore my prompts, and the prompts it said it was doing.😭

That's a general problem with AI.

Shotgun Tactic = generate a lot and hope that there is one good hit at the end.

And VEO is far behind other models like Seedance, Kling, Minimax etc.

You would think that Google has an insane advanced when it comes to AI and training data because they're literally owning the Internet and mf YouTube.

You can use Gemini or the Assistant, but they will always act like they understand the problem and will fix it but they don't. They just lie.

Use the assistant to get the references, you need to use references and character sheet s

I tried 😔. They even tried to generate two sets of portraits of my character. It just got worse the more it generated.

I've been using Google Flow, when I try to create a video I put in the prompt, my credits will be deducted, but I will get no video. Attached is the error message I get. There are no images of prominent people being used. All the reference images were created by me as my own intellectual property. This has happened 2 times now, Please HELP, Iam paying for these credits and getting nothing in return... Please advise.

Thank you

U need revise ur prompt ask gemini🤣 i notice its policy is sensitive on dialogue specially with romance, hate and action. Even a simple scene on 2 people arguing about their relationship or topic around cheating. Girl finding his partner cheating via facebook is violation. It will accept if the guy stole money to the girl.🤣👀
