So far, Midjourney has been ranked as the best AI image generator, and rightfully so. However, a new open source model called Flux. 1 has been released by Black Forest Labs, and it has quickly become a sensation for generating photorealistic images. In this Flux vs Midjourney comparison we will check which tool is better at creating images, depicting human features and the images look quite unreal. The realism of generated images is quite remarkable.

Flow. 1 is an open source AI model for image generation, developed by former stable diffusion engineers and researchers. Under the new AI startup called Black Forest Labs, three new Flux. 1 models have been released. Flow. 1 [pro] is the latest model and it is intended for commercial use only. My God. Without a doubt the most realistic AI visuals I've ever seen. We are 99.7% of the way to AI images that are indistinguishable from reality.(You can still see some imperfections when you zoom in) This is done with FLUX. Uncanny Valley. pic.twitter.com/5BIRmZey8B — Roberto Nickson (@rpnickson) August 8, 2024

Flow. 1 [dev] and Flux. 1 [schnell] models are open source and the AI community has already improved the models to generate photorealistic images. With a Realism LoRA adapter, Flux. 1 [dev] model can generate visually realistic images and the hands are depicted without any distortion or artifacts.
