When a generation fails, should you generate more takes, fix the prompt or start over?
On Higgsfield: In Supercomputer, Adil gives one note per take in the same chat: he names the one change, says what to keep (the person, bar, action and mood) and has it rewrite the prompt before generating. Higgsfield says a prompt problem changes on every run, while a settings problem is wrong the same way every time and is usually quicker to fix in Cinema Studio than with more text.
Without Higgsfield: When the same problem shows up in every batch, the issue is the prompt or the source material and batching further only burns credits, while a take that is right but rolled badly just needs reruns.
Axis: rebatch … fix the prompt … rebuild from scratch
Concept: rebatching
