    Nice to see another locally hostable model! It’s going to take me a bit longer to add this model to the GenAI Showdown benchmark [1], since I’ll need to add a bit of customization so it produces highly optimized JSON-structured prompts.

    It might be worth noting that fal.ai [2] (a fairly popular router in the generative AI space) doesn’t really mention or emphasize the JSON-structured prompt format, and seems to suggest it works just as well with natural language. It might be worth reaching out to them, at least to clarify this point and make things a bit clearer.

    The galery of generated images looks amazing, it's hard (but often possible) to spot inconsistencies in detailed images.

    Non-commercial license, you should not call that "open-weight". Words have meaning.

    And people are having a laugh at how censored the model is.

      The model should perform better with JSON prompts than with natural language prompts. The safety filter may also be triggered incorrectly by natural language prompts, we are aware of this and will make a future checkpoint update to improve it.

      See how to prompt the model here: https://github.com/ideogram-oss/ideogram4/blob/main/docs/pro...
