The biggest challenge in Flux is generating images that are not cramped or tiny. And it’s not just Flux that has this problem - I have a theory about why it happens, and it ends up being baked in by the training data.

But first, for today, I just want to illustrate the problem. Here’s a prompt I was working on:

The image is set in the main suite of a converted commercial jet. Where ten-abreast seats once were, Omid is sitting in a single seat that has been placed right on the airplane’s center line. Two cars could park on either side of the seat; the luxury is the space and privacy.

And from that prompt, I get the this image:

This is not spacious. It’s a cramped land of paranoia and insecurity. And once you see it, you see it everwhere.

In the next one, I’ll give a few more examples and try to explain why we get here and maybe a solution.
