They call it a diffusion model, but it's based on Flux.2 which is a rectified flow model.

I actually can’t wait for the future where I upgrade hardware in order to upgrade my ai as an alternative to an expensive subscription.

There are many problems I want to work on which require billions of tokens. These are completely inaccessible without corporate project sponsorship at the moment. An asic generation machine which can pump out a few 10s of thousands of tokens per second at opus4.6 quality is more than sufficient.

Is there a benchmark of local image generation models? Local = can run on a 16 GB MacBook or 8 GB+ NVIDIA card.

Anyone could pickup the minimal hardware requirements for this? Like both RAM and Storage?

Lately I've noticed posts with barely 10 points getting to HN frontpage. Was it always like this?

Question,

Is it compatible with Ollama, ComfyUI or are those providers unneeded, compatible with low-end hardware?

Also, where does "./setup.sh/ drop the components in Linux?

Thank you, Sol
