What it does

Flux Dev, in practice.

flux-dev is a 12 billion parameter rectified flow transformer capable of generating images from textual descriptions.

  • 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.
  • 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.

Parameters

What you can set.

ParameterWhat it doesOptions
seedThe same seed and the same prompt given to the same version of the model will output the same image every time.default -1
sizeThe size of the generated image.default 1024*1024
imageThe image to generate an image from.
promptThe prompt to generate an image from.
strengthStrength indicates extent to transform the reference imagedefault 0.8
mask_imageThe mask image tells the model where to generate new pixels (white) and where to preserve the original image (black). It acts as a stencil or guide for targeted image editing.
num_imagesThe number of images to generate.default 1
guidance_scaleFlux embedded guidance strength. Higher values make the image follow the prompt more closely. This is not True CFG and does not require a negative prompt. Default 3.5.default 3.5
num_inference_stepsThe number of inference steps to perform.default 28
