flux-dev is a 12 billion parameter rectified flow transformer capable of generating images from textual descriptions.
Key Features
- High-Quality Image Generation: Produces detailed and visually appealing images from textual prompts.
- Efficient Training with Guidance Distillation: Utilizes guidance distillation techniques to enhance training efficiency and model responsiveness.
- Open Weights: Provides open access to model weights, facilitating scientific research and creative development.
- Versatile Usage: Suitable for personal, scientific, and commercial applications, offering flexibility across various use cases.
ComfyUI
flux-dev is also available on ComfyUI, providing local inference capabilities through a node-based workflow, ensuring flexible and efficient image generation on your system.
Limitations
- Creative Focus: Designed primarily for creative image synthesis; not intended for generating factually accurate content.
- Inherent Biases: Outputs may reflect biases present in the training data.
- Input Sensitivity: The quality and consistency of generated images depend significantly on the quality of the input text; subtle variations may lead to output variability.
- Prompt Dependency: The model's performance is closely tied to the clarity and structure of the prompts; careful crafting may be necessary for optimal results.
Out-of-Scope Use
The model and its derivatives may not be used in any way that violates applicable national, federal, state, local, or international law or regulation, including but not limited to:
- Exploiting, harming, or attempting to exploit or harm minors, including solicitation, creation, acquisition, or dissemination of child exploitative content.
- Generating or disseminating verifiably false information with the intent to harm others.
- Creating or distributing personal identifiable information that could be used to harm an individual.
- Harassing, abusing, threatening, stalking, or bullying individuals or groups.
- Producing non-consensual nudity or illegal pornographic content.
- Making fully automated decisions that adversely affect an individual’s legal rights or create binding obligations.
- Facilitating large-scale disinformation campaigns.
