In a recent blog post, Shridharathi evaluates several image editing models released by major AI labs, focusing on their performance across tasks such as object removal, perspective transformation, background editing, text manipulation, and style transfer. The models tested include FLUX.1 Kontext, Qwen Image Edit, Nano Banana, SeedEdit, Seedream, and GPT-image-1, with each model showcasing strengths and weaknesses in different areas. FLUX.1 Kontext and Nano Banana excel in text editing, while the ByteDance models, SeedEdit and Seedream, perform well in background editing by maintaining character consistency and natural lighting. Nano Banana stands out in style transfer, maintaining the closest resemblance to original images with artistic effects. The post highlights the importance of choosing a model based on specific needs and encourages users to explore Replicate's playground for hands-on experimentation with these models.
