Why include negative prompts?
Negative prompts can help reduce common artifacts such as fake text, unwanted logos, distorted hands, warped shapes, or plastic texture.
What safety rule matters most here?
No false health, ingredient, or certification claims. Keep the output non-deceptive and model-neutral.
