Damn this is actually really good.

#12It is very good at "non-human subjects in photos with shallow focus".
Really curious to see what other low-hanging fruits people are finding.

#13This is actually really good! I fear much better than SD3 even!

#14Am I missing something? The beach image they give still fails to follow the prompt in major ways.

#15The [schnell] model variant is Apache-licensed and is open sourced on Hugging Face: https://huggingface.co/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell It is very fast and very good at rendering text, and appears to have a text encoder such that the model can handle both text and positioning much better: https://x.com/minimaxir/status/1819041076872908894 A fun consequence of better text rendering is that it means text watermarks…
Thank you. Their website is super hard to navigate and I can't find a "DOWNLOAD" button.

#16> FLUX.1 [dev]: The base model, open-sourced with a non-commercial license
...then it's not open source. At least the others are Apache 2.0 (real open source) and correctly labeled proprietary, respectively.

Note that actually running the model without a A100 GPU or better will be tricker than usual given its size (12B parameters, 24GB on disk).
There is a PR to that repo for a diffusers implementation, which may run on a cheap L4 GPU w/ enable_model_cpu_offload(): https://huggingface.co/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell/comm...

3090 TIs should be able to handle it without much in the way of tricks for a "reasonable" (for the HN crowd) price.

Check out reddit.com/r/stablediffusion, it's been handling everything people have thrown at it so far.

#20I wonder if the key behind the quality of the MidJourney models, and this models, is less about size + architecture and more about the quality of images trained on.
It looks like this is the case for LLMs, that the training quality of the data has a significant impact on the output quality of the model, which makes sense.
So the real magic is in designing a system to curate that high quality data.
