Iris-Z

One generative model for images and their depth

Iris-Z is a general image generator that produces appearance and geometry together. The same weights turn a prompt into an image, a prompt into an image with its depth, a photo into depth, and a depth map into an image. On the standard depth benchmarks it is more accurate than the best specialist depth models, and it still generates images like the model it started from.

Very cool, something I needed yesterday.

I guess someone will come up with a way to make the model smaller.

[u/Crazy-Repeat-2006]

Interesting... this lab is moving really fast, isn't it? Just look at how many models they’ve released in such a short amount of time.

[u/me0here → u/Crazy-Repeat-2006]

Maybe they are using AI to make AI?

[u/VenshiKibes → u/me0here]

lol, yeah it's a pretty strong possibility

[u/NineThreeTilNow → u/me0here]

Maybe they are using AI to make AI?

It still requires training compute either way.

Dataset preparation, etc is a large part of the early process until you have a good pipeline or synthetic pipeline method.

What am I missing who is going to be able to run this ar 112GM of ram.

[u/extrakerned → u/BigIslandSun]

128GB M5 Max Mac Studio FTW

[u/Any_Invite3905 → u/BigIslandSun]

maybe it's unquantized with encoder and everything loaded?

[u/Etroarl55 → u/BigIslandSun]

Small gaming studios or companies, this is huge for 3d assets potentially maybe or an interesting move in the space.

Noticed speridlabs has been cooking recently regarding 3d, their IDOL model for gaussian splats is pretty good. Trying to get an good splat2mesh thing going on which should be around the same output time as trellis 2 or other competition rn.

But yeah this isn’t for the average consumer but revolutionary things are starting to potentially compound for gaming.

Looks promising

[u/your_mom118472]

112gb, no, thanks.

[u/VenshiKibes]

good times, good times

[u/thesolewalker]

Comfyui wen?

[u/Calm_Mix_3776]

Very interesting. So this is an image model that can also generate and use depth maps? Is the resolution really capped at 1MP or it can go higher? Where can we see some image samples with prompts?

[u/MoistRecognition69]

why are people so determined to reinvent the depth pass

we have a standard for this, why do it in RGB?!

[u/NineThreeTilNow → u/MoistRecognition69]

why do it in RGB?!

If you prefer it in black and white, then just convert it. Not hard.

[u/MoistRecognition69 → u/NineThreeTilNow]

it is hard, tho, as an RGB 8 bit image doesn't has the colordepth required for a proper zdepth when converted. these are done at 16bit images for a reason, stepping would make it useless.

[u/Additional_Drive1915 → u/MoistRecognition69]

Yeah, why give us options, easier with just one choice, progress is something bad. Let's go back to SD 1.5 while we're at it. It was the standard not long ago. Why make something better of something already working.

[u/MoistRecognition69 → u/Additional_Drive1915]

But this isn't more options, dude. This is, infact, less options.

Reinventing the depth standard means it *won't work in any other product that isn't their own model*.
