i once was talking to a guy who started a company and sold it to google and asked him for advice and he said something like you know diego.. the only advice that is objectively true is “take more pictures” and i still think about that

Last month, we demonstrated high-rate alchemy: turning mercury into real, stable gold, beating CERN’s record by a factor of 10. Last week, we enriched isotopes in the world’s most powerful plasma centrifuge, beating the Soviet record that stood for 40 years. Now, we’re building a fusion reactor in San Francisco to achieve record power density.

we're a leading AI lab, with people that care, and opportunities to own big chunks of our research/infra. dm!
feels surreal. our first ever image-to-image model defeats multiple trillion-dollar companies compared to them, krea is a tiny team that punches way above its weight if you wanna work on the frontier of image generation at a lab that still feels like a startup, dm me this is just the beginning :)

the good thing about the eMudhra CA private key mess is that we can finally use https on localhost

Krea 3 Fast pushes the pareto curve, bringing a level o quality superior to Nano Banana Pro in under 8s.

fun fact: I still do most launch videos for Krea myself. I made this one using a tool I built over the weekend, we may add it to Krea soon. here I prompt it to add sparkles in the green region; you can talk to it, have it designing on Figma, and "train" agents to learn the kind of visuals or motion you like.
today, Krea 3 makes it to the top of image arenas. - "Fast" pushes the pareto curve of speed and quality. - "Ultra" ranks top-4, only surpassed by OpenAI models. the only company valued under $1T in the top-10! more below 👇

Replying to @0xSpotts
If I made a list of scummy businesses it'd be right on the top. Genuinely feels like they're run by a criminal organization. Never seen anything like it in the AI space, nothing even comes close. Maybe @grok can summarize - Why do people on X hate Higgsfield? Not the anti AI people, the pro AI people.

i’m at a plane-like a greek god but no feathered wings and not enough leg room. we have super intelligence. “i vibecoded photoshop!”—they shriek. *sigh* mom, the folks who swore by the fordian car vs the faster horse are preaching a faster old world :( of fu-soup’s cold

one of my most autistic debuf is getting confused by normal use of chatapps the smartmonke species decided millennia ago to categorize information into <message>, <thread>, and <topic> for a reason but u get “got blackmarket gpu discount. oh how’s mom & nyc? also want lunch?”

we used to have organic line of thought compaction. but now we get raw carbon-based thinking traces and we are supposed to smile and keep going

sorry forgot to mention it, krea 3 can also do MATH. @krea_ai proof generation next?😂 1/n
krea 3 is an excellent model for fast and precise image editing. applied 6 densely crowded edits in one shot flawlessly.

The Krea 2 LoRA I trained works wonderfully, is super fast (0.43s per sprite) and very cheap ($0.00031 per sprite, or 31 cents per 1k sprites)
It's impossible to get GPT Image 2.5 to follow a grid to make pixel art, I sent the grid as reference This is High quality, come on

turns out if a diffusion model is fast enough, precise enough, and smart enough, you can simulate turns of games! in this @awdii_ demo you can see our latest model, Krea 3 (@krea_ai) simulate games turn by turn with a prompt asking for one edit at a time

ok so turns out controllability + multi-turn editing + speed = a universal game engine
