Meet Iris-3B: a pixel-space T2I model and general vision learner that generates every pixel directly. No VAE. Pre-trained from scratch, 3B, open weights. We also explore its generative prior on detail-critical vision tasks: depth estimation and image restoration. Fully open: weights, code and demo (Apache 2.0)

@barckcode nunca te pido nada 🥹 y encima son de españita

@ComfyUI workflow guys? sounds incredible!

Can it work on low res images, like 64x64 pixels? This is the limitation of todays imagegen models - even for pixel art they produce high res images, when scaled down look awful.

🚀🚀🚀

Go go go @speridlabs 🙌🏼

@AntonObukhov1 Interesting as a prior

Dropping the VAE is what makes depth and restoration work here: no latent decode step to smooth away the thin, high frequency detail.

Incredible work 3B pixels directly with no VAE and fully open weights is exactly the kind of open research the community needs!

no VAE here... top my friend @hanqiulicai 🚀 🚀

Open weights is incredible! THANK YOU!!

Congrats!

Generating pixels directly without a VAE is boldOpen weights on a no-VAE generator is the real flex.

ngl open weights at 3b makes this easy for people to actually try fr

Neat

Impressive work! Open-weight pixel-space models open up exciting possibilities for image generation and vision research.

Open weights and pixel level generation make this research especially promising

Interesting!

Using it to fix images sounds really useful too.

This is fantastic Iris 3B directly in pixel space with no VAE is a bold and impressive approach love that its fully open

Pixel Space with optimized architecture is future! Thank you for your work!

Nice!

Still using a 4B VL addition. Not fully portable

No VAE and direct pixel generation at 3B thats a bold architecture bet love that its fully open with weights and code

pixel space models deserve more love

Lets go!!

Love this. Pixel-space generation with open weights will push T2I and vision research forward fast.

Impressive to see pixel-native generation paired with open weights and broader vision capabilities

Iris-3B pixel-space T2I model generates pixels directly without VAE openly released now

No VAE pixel-space T2I is bold Iris-3B looks super promising

@bot

Exciting open release pushing direct pixel generation

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
