Dong察 Beating AI News Flash: Black Forest Labs has launched FLUX 3 Image, a model supporting both image generation and editing. Users can first use Bounding Box to set the position and size of elements, then instruct the model to generate images following this layout. For example, when creating a multi-person poster, users can frame each individual’s position and assign their standing spots; the model can also autonomously plan these bounding boxes. Post-generation, elements can be further moved or modified with minimal impact on the rest of the image. FLUX 3 Image supports up to 10 reference images, and produces native 2K and 4K outputs. Enterprises can now purchase model weights for self-deployment and fine-tuning, while an open-weight version for general users is set to roll out in the coming weeks.
