      • 千问发布Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo 8步即可完成图片生成与编辑，权重和API均已上线。 做AI绘图产品，除了看效果与速度， 也要看许可：该权重的商业使用需另获授权。 #Qwen #AI绘图

      • 🔥国产开源出图卷到 8 步了！阿里通义 10 月 9 日开源 Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo：70 亿参数、8 步去噪出图改图（基础版要 40 步），2K 分辨率、自然语言连续改图，权重上架 HuggingFace。配图是官方样张。但有个坑：这次是「研究许可」，商用要单独授权。省流：速度×5、开源可本地跑、商用先看许可。

      • Qwen 昨天又放了个新东西：Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo。 还是那个 7B 的图模型，但出图只要 8 步去噪，之前是 40 步。官方 GitHub 昨天更新的，权重直接能下，2K 分辨率，编辑功能也在，API 同步上了阿里云。 跟今早发的 Noct-Q 对一下就有意思了：Noct-Q 是社区基于 2.1 做的 uncensored 版，走的还是 40 步那套。现在官方 8 步…

      • 开源生图，先干了「抠图」这活。 通义千问 Qwen-Image-2.1：文生图改图一个模型，透明底直出，10 张参考图合成一张，圈一块局部改，原生 2K。 ComfyUI 首日可用，视觉生成只 7B，研究许可，商用先看条款。 开源 22 天 1.7k star。 #AI绘画 #Qwen #ComfyUI #开源

      • FLUX 3 和 Qwen Image 2.1，先把共同点说清楚。 两者都能文生图、编辑图片，最多支持 10 张参考图，也都能指定区域做局部修改。 Qwen 官方展示了圈选、涂画和“原图＋独立蒙版”；FLUX 展示了方框定位。这是各自文档举例，区域编辑是共同能力，示例形式不代表能力互斥，更不能据此判断谁更强。 再看已公开的规格和开放状态： • 输出尺寸：Qwen 2.1 原生 2K，例如…

      • 做透明素材，还是改一张已经定稿的图？FLUX 3 和 Qwen Image 2.1，先看手上的活。 Qwen 2.1 很实用的一点是原生透明图：能直接生成透明底素材、改透明图层，也能从照片里提取主体。做贴纸、图标、产品素材，可以先试它。权重已可下载，适合拿到本地研究。 FLUX 3 值得关注的是用方框安排元素位置，再一轮轮改稿。最高支持…
