GROK 2.0:

Grok 2 and FLUX: AI Image Generation in Action

Grok-2, the latest version of the AI chatbot, now offers image generation capabilities thanks to the integration of FLUX.1 by Black Forest Labs.

With this new feature, users can create impressive visuals, potentially even surpassing what’s possible with other AI tools like Midjourney.

Here’s a glimpse into some of the images generated using Grok-2:

Olympic breakdancer: Generate an image of a woman in a green tracksuit performing an airflare breakdance move. Of course I had to include some Olympic rings in the background.

Skateboarding goldie: A golden retriever in a nautical-themed sweater skating along Bondi Beach. A decent, if unremarkable, result.

Opera house photoshoot: A photorealistic portrait of a newlywed couple outside the iconic Sydney Opera House. The couple is well-dressed and the Opera House is clearly visible in the background.

Zoo’s roo: An adorable AI image of a zookeeper feeding a baby kangaroo, perfectly capturing the cuteness.

Glowing bridge: A cyberpunk-inspired reimagining of the Sydney Harbor Bridge with glowing neon lights, though the overall cyberpunk vibe was slightly underwhelming.

Grok-2’s image generation capabilities, powered by FLUX.1, offer promising results, showcasing the potential of AI in visual creativity.
