At first I went "holy shit!", but then I caught myself and had to ask the inevitable: is it a real photo or #genAI?

Because it really looks like it. Like that prior ICE photo thing I did, I took this one and cranked it through a remix prompt for #Flux2Klein... and the output isn't quite EXACTLY as convincing, but the original looks kinda funky, too. So... heh. The skyline really red flags these generated ones, easily.

Be careful out there. Question stuff. Not obnoxiously so. You don't wanna be the "that's AI" guy for every photo. Just... keep it back of mind, ya'know? :P

So let's engage in a bit of art theft!

Not because I ever plan to, but because I want you to be informed and understand how very much fucked we are from here on out! Hurray!

So I found this very nice Supergirl painting on Reddit. (First pic.) Is it a real painting? Is it AI? Who knows. But let's assume it's real for the sake of the scenario.

I'm Mr. Evil Guy, so I decide it's mine now.

I take a headshot of myself (because I painted it now, after all) and bring both images to #Flux2Klein: `This man sits in front of an easel with this canvas painting in front of him; he has a paint palette in his hand; ink on the palette reflects the colors in the painting; the man is holding a brush, making fine additions to the painting`.

I go though a couple generations to find one that looks the most convincing. Maybe I edit in a couple details, or remove some. Tweaks.

But now I have "proof" that I created it. Except, of course, it's completely fabricated. Took 5 minutes tops.

And this isn't on Gemini or ChatGPT or whatever. This is all done locally on personal hardware.

And I don't even know if that original pic is AI or not. 😭

WHAT FUN.

Huh.

So #Flux2Klein is just as awesome as ZImageTurbo! And it can 'edit' images like QwenImageEdit.

That means I can swap it out on my Slack bot and give it powers. 😮

Flux.2-klein 모델이 일본어 지시로 플랫 컬러화·선화화 등의 이미지 편집을 손쉽게 수행했다고 보고했습니다. 특히 애니풍 이미지 편집에 강점을 보인다는 경험담으로, 이미지 편집·스타일 변환 분야에서 실용적 가능성을 시사합니다.
