Open Source ChromeOS AI Image Generators

HunyuanImage-3.0 is a powerful, native multimodal text-to-image generation model released by Tencent’s Hunyuan team. It unifies multimodal understanding and generation in a single autoregressive framework, combining text and image modalities seamlessly rather than relying on separate image-only diffusion components. It uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with many expert subnetworks to scale efficiently, deploying only a subset of experts per token, which allows large parameter counts without linear inference cost explosion. The model is intended to be competitive with closed-source image generation systems, aiming for high fidelity, prompt adherence, fine detail, and even “world knowledge” reasoning (i.e. leveraging context, semantics, or common sense in generation). The GitHub repo includes code, scripts, model loading instructions, inference utilities, prompt handling, and integration with standard ML tooling (e.g. Hugging Face / Transformers).

Stable Diffusion Version 2. The Stable Diffusion project, developed by Stability AI, is a cutting-edge image synthesis model that utilizes latent diffusion techniques for high-resolution image generation. It offers an advanced method of generating images based on text input, making it highly flexible for various creative applications. The repository contains pretrained models, various checkpoints, and tools to facilitate image generation tasks, such as fine-tuning and modifying the models. Stability AI's approach to image synthesis has contributed to creating detailed, scalable images while maintaining efficiency.

Hunyuan3D-1 is an earlier version in the same 3D generation line (the unified framework for text-to-3D and image-to-3D tasks) by Tencent Hunyuan. It provides a framework combining shape generation and texture synthesis, enabling users to create 3D assets from images or text conditions. While less advanced than version 2.1, it laid the foundations for the later PBR, higher resolution, and open-source enhancements. (Note: less detailed public documentation was found for Hunyuan3D-1 compared to 2.1.). Community and ecosystem support (e.g. usage via Blender addon for geometry/texture). Integration into user-friendly tools/platforms.

FLUX.1 Krea [dev] is an open-source 12-billion parameter image generation model developed collaboratively by Krea and Black Forest Labs, designed to deliver superior aesthetic control and high image quality. It is a rectified-flow model distilled from the original Krea 1, providing enhanced sampling efficiency through classifier-free guidance distillation. The model supports generation at resolutions between 1024 and 1280 pixels with recommended inference steps between 28 and 32 for optimal balance of speed and quality. FLUX.1 Krea is fully compatible with the FLUX.1 architecture, making it easy to integrate into existing workflows and pipelines. The repository offers easy-to-use inference scripts and a Jupyter Notebook example to facilitate quick experimentation and adoption. Users can run the model locally after downloading weights from Hugging Face and benefit from a live demo available on krea.ai.
