The Intelligent AI Assistant Doubao, developed by ByteDance, has recently upgraded its text-to-image capabilities. The new feature allows users to generate images containing specified text with a single click. The relevant person in charge of the Doubao large model team pointed out that the text-to-image model of Doubao integrates LLM (Large Language Model) and DIT (Digital Image Technology) framework, optimizing its learning ability for Chinese data, and enhancing the generation capability of Chinese characters, significantly improving the generation results.

The rapid development of generative AI has raised the challenge of comprehensively evaluating its performance. A plethora of models have emerged, each showcasing increasingly impressive results. However, the pressing question remains: how do we assess the effectiveness of these text-to-image models? Traditional evaluation methods often rely on subjective visual assessments or simple metrics like CLIPScore, which frequently fail to capture the intricate details found in complex text prompts, such as relationships between objects and logical reasoning. This leads to inaccurate evaluation outcomes for many text-to-image models.

Recent research from Alibaba's Tongyi Laboratory indicates that existing text-to-image Diffusion Transformer models already possess the ability to generate multiple images with specific relational contexts. With just a little 'guidance', they can achieve a synthesis of understanding and produce high-quality multi-image collections. Traditional Diffusion models are more like 'rote learning' students, requiring massive datasets to generate high-quality images. However, with the support of IC-LoRA, they become 'high-achieving students', capable of learning through analogy.

Last night, Stability AI unveiled its most powerful model - Stable Diffusion 3.5, which is not just a single model, but a package containing three versions, designed to meet the diverse needs of researchers, business enthusiasts, startups, and enterprises.
