My favorite thing to do with Flux is create images with a white background for my substack[1] because the text following is amazing and I can communicate something visually through the artwork as well. [1] https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_...

That example you gave is a good reason why artists get pissed off IMO. The LLM is clearly aping some artists specific style, and now missing out on paid work as a result. Not sure I have an opinion on that, technology marches on etc, but it is interesting.

Dont care about artists opinion on rest of using AI tools instead of not paying them because I couldnt and wouldnt so theres no demand in the first place.

All I wanna know is the prompt that was used to generate the art speaking of which i wanna know how to create cartoony images like that OP

I just cancelled my Midjourney subscription, it feels like it's fallen too far behind for the stuff I'd like to do. Spent a lot of time considering using Replicate as well as Ideogram.

never used midjourney because it had that signature look and bad with hands, feet, letters

crazy not even a year has past since Emad's downfall a local open source and superior model drops

which just shows how little moat these companies have and are just lighting cash on fire which we benefit from

Text to image models feels inefficient to me. I wonder if it would be possible and better to do it in separate steps, like text to scene graph, scene graph to semantically segmented image, segmented image to final image. That way each step could be trained separately and be modular, and the image would be easier to edit instead of completely replace it with the output of a new prompt. That way it should be much easie…

Neural networks will gradually be compressed to their minimum optimal size (once we know how to do that)

I understand your point, but in 0% of all cases would I hire an artist to create imagery for my personal blog. Therefore, I would think that market doesn't exist.

Yeah, I get that completely, I'm the same way. I just think it's interesting. It's kind of the same argument as piracy, since most people wouldn't pay for what they download if it wasn't free.

I'd rather think it's the same argument as open-source and public domain. Currently, I am researching an agent that ReAct's through a game of TicTacToe. I am using a derivative of the open-source transformer's prompt

Does someone know what FLUX 1.1 has been trained on? I generated almost hundred images on the pro model using "camera filename + simple word" two word prompts, and it all looks like photos from someones phone. Like, unless it has text I would not even stop to consider any of these images AI. They sometimes look cropped. A lot of food pictures, messy tables and appartments etc. Did they scrape public facebook posts? S…

It's not just flux, you can do the same with other models including Stable Diffusion.

These two reddit threads [1][2] explore this convention a bit.

I experienced the same thing, it was so weird i got good results in the beginning and then it "craps out"

dont know why all the critical comments about flux are being downvoted or flag sure is weird

What is different in this case is that large companies are very likely looking to replace artists with ai, which is a huge potential impact. Piracy never had such risks

Non-commercial is not open-source, because if the original copyright holder stops maintaining it, nobody else can continue (or has to work like a slave for free). Open-source is about what happens if the original author stops working on it. Open-source gives everyone the license to continue developing it, which obviously means also the ability to get paid. Don't call it open-source if this aspect is missing. Only the…

Doesn’t open source mean the source is viewable/inspectable? I don’t know any closed source apps that let you view the source.

Thank you, this is good and horrific to know. The hair of my hair are standing on their end.

Of all the models exibiting this behaviour, has anyone published, what are the training data sources? Like, honest list, not the PR-boilerplate.
