The blog write-up style is so casual haha.

embedding-shape

Not a single word about when/if they'll actually release the weights for this, or am I missing it somewhere?

> Supports up to 4.5k token input, effortlessly generating complex layouts such as newspapers, storyboards, and exam papers. Impressive. Btw, what is currently the best model to run locally on a 16GB Vram? Is it Z-Image Turbo?

spwa4

Appears to be closed-weights entirely. No word at all on any weights release.

The meta keywords in the HTML is very interesting. 100+ references to NSFW topics such as hentai, nudes, etc.

Midjourney already knew that image generation was going to zero. Again yet another reason why the model was never a moat in the first place.

The red-dress woman's vestigial pinkie toes …

They must have trained on GPT Image 1 outputs. The yellow tint is unmistakable. https://qianwen-res.oss-accelerate.aliyuncs.com/Qwen-Image/i... https://qianwen-res.oss-accelerate.aliyuncs.com/Qwen-Image/i... https://qianwen-res.oss-accelerate.aliyuncs.com/Qwen-Image/i... https://qianwen-res.oss-accelerate.aliyuncs.com/Qwen-Image/i...

Wow, it displays Korean properly without breaking. But there are still a lot of typos. Haha, it's good that Korean displays properly, but there are a lot of incorrect sentences

interesting

To me it feels so weird that people are trying to push these model for online shopping like "here is how this dress/shirt/pants would look on you". But these models will always make the clothes fit your body and show you in flattering light and so on. How the actual garment fits is still as elusive as before these tools

viridir

This looks impressive!

How long until we get rid of the AI "plasticness" in portrait kind of generated images?

saltysalt

It will be interesting to compare this to Flux 2.

I assume Van Gogh didn't paint enough hands to train from!

The real performance is nowhere close to what is presented in the marketing materials, which is pretty annoying. Especially text rendering and accuracy. Try asking it for a plot of Polish GDP growth over the past 20 years. It's slop.

dsrtslnd23

Seems that this will not be open weights?

gchokov

It failed to create a simple overlay on a map - something ChatGPT had no issues with.

maxloh

I am curious whether the model requires a font to be installed. Does it also generate the glyphs for the text?

feverzsj

The "piss filter" is still everywhere.
