Microsoft Lens Rivals FLUX with Way Less Compute

Check summary

Meet Lens, Microsoft's new open-source image model. At only 3.8 billion parameters, it rivals giants like FLUX using dense caption pre-training, arbitrary aspect ratios, and a lightning-fast four-step turbo mode. For AI developers, this delivers state-of-the-art generation with a fraction of the compute, training cost, and memory footprint. Scale smarter, not bigger.
