Since talking images, are there any AI models that can output real transparent gifs/pngs?

And not a (botched) fake white/gray grid background that is commonly used to visualize transparency?

This is exactly the use case I just tried, and not only does one get a non-transparent checkerboard, the squares are inconsistent & jumbled.

ChatGPT's image generator has been able to do this since last year. That NBP still can't is baffling. They should at least train it to respond to requests for transparency with a solid colour pink background.

You can output to a plain background and use any number of tools to mask it.
