As a professional cinematographer/photographer I am incredibly uncomfortable with people using my art without my permission for unknown ends. Doubly so when it’s venture backed private companies stealing from millions of people like me as they make vague promises about the capabilities of their software trained on my work. It doesn’t take much to understand why that makes me uncomfortable and why I feel I am entitled…

The day after I first heard about the Internet, back in 1990-whatever, it occurred to me that I probably shouldn't upload anything to the Internet that I didn't want to see on the front page of tomorrow's newspaper. Apart from the 'newspaper' anachronism, that's pretty much still my take. Sorry, but you'll just have to deal with it and get over it.

You were fine until this bit.

My copium is that analog photography makes a come back as a way to recover some level of trust and authenticity.

Good luck getting it developed unfortunately. I have to ship it off now, there isn’t a single local spot in my city that will develop anymore

When the demand is back, the labs should start coming back. There's a few in my relatively small city which is pretty surprising. But the costs are still too high to cover the low volume I guess.

The mirror test is cool!

Subtle detail but the little table casts a shadow because of the light in the window and the shadow remains unchanged after the mirror replaces the window.

More obviously, the objects in the mirror aren't actually reversed!

Okay results are in for GenAI Showdown with the new gpt-image 1.5 model for the editing portions of the site! https://genai-showdown.specr.net/image-editing Conclusions - OpenAI has always had some of the strongest prompt understanding alongside the weakest image fidelity. This update goes some way towards addressing this weakness. - It's leagues better at making localized edits without altering the entire image's ae…

I really love everything you're doing! Personal request: could you also advocate for "image previz rendering", which I feel is an extremely compelling use case for these companies to develop. Basically any 2d/3d compositor that allows you to visually block out a scene, then rely on the model to precisely position the set, set pieces, and character poses. If we got this task onto benchmarks, the companies would absolu…

Thanks! A highly configurable Previz2Image model would be a fantastic addition. I was literally just thinking about this the other day (but more in the context of ControlNets and posable kinematic models). I’m even considering adding an early CG Poser blocked‑out scene test to see how far the various editor models can take it.

With additions like structured prompts (introduced in BFL Flux 2), maybe we'll see something like this in the near future.

They're still fine because they're right.

You got to play the copyright game when the big corps were on your side.

Now they're on the other side. Deal with it and get over it.

That one's on me! It was still using the old NB image.

Updated the mirror test to use the NB Pro version.

Nano Banana has still the best VAE we have seen especially if you are doing high res production work. The flux2 comes close but gpt image is still miles away.

> the only model that legitimately passed the Giraffe prompt.

10 years ago I would have considered that sentence satire. Now it allegedly means something.

Somehow it feels like we’re moving backwards.
