idk it seems pretty clear BFL’s target market is developers not graphic designers. and for developers at scale like Meta and Adobe, it’s pretty incredible a tiny startup like BFL has become the primary alternative to Google with 1/100th of the resources within 12 months of their founding, doing hundreds of millions of revenue
the Chinese models are great, but no serious enterprise developer is going to bet their image workloads at scale in production on Chinese models if the market evolves anything like past developer infrastructure
How is an image generation model serving the market of...developers? I mean I know we all focus on these models and get excited about what they can do. But why would we pay for them for more than a few tests?
