I'm worried about what happens when more people find out about Ideogram.

There are a lot of things that don't appear in ELO scores. For one, they will not reflect that you cannot prompt women's faces in Flux. We can only speculate why.

"state of the art" has become such tired marketing jargon.

"our most advanced and efficient model yet"

"a significant step forward in our mission to empower creators"

I get it, you can't sell things if you don't market them, and you can't make a living making things if you don't sell them, but it's exhausting.

The generated images look impressive of course but I can't help but be mildly amused by the fact that the prompt for the second example image insists strongly that the image should say 1.1:

> ... photo with the text "FLUX 1.1 [Pro]", ..., must say "1.1", ...

...And of course, it does not.

How locked down is it? My problem with a lot of these is I like to make really ridiculous meme type images, but I run into walls for dumb reasons. Like if I want to make something thats "copyrighted" like a mix of certain characters from one franchise or whatever, I cannot sometimes I get told that the model cannot generate copyrighted content, even though courts ruled that AI generated stuff cannot be copyrighted either way...

I feel like AI should just be treated as fair use as long as its not 100% blatantly a literal clone of the original work.

Are there any projects that allow for easy setup and hosting Flux locally? Similar to SD projects like InvokeAI or a1111

Flux is more weird than old SD projects since Flux is extremely resource dependant and won't run on most hardware.
