DeepSeek claims its Janus-Pro-7B outperforms existing models such as OpenAI's DALL-E and Stable Diffusion. In a bold move that mirrors its approach with DeepSeek-R1, the company has made Janus-Pro-7B free and open source.

Now DeepSeek has released Janus Pro, an image generating model the company claims that has been engineered for versatility and efficiency. It is and advanced version based on the Janus model, released last year, that performs text-to-image creation that scales up the training data and increases the model size.

DeepSeek says its updated text-to-image generator Janus pro-7B outperforms OpenAI's DALL-E 3 across multiple benchmarks.

The Janus Pro models have been launched on GitHub and Hugging Face, available in one-billion and seven-billion parameter models. According to DeepSeek, the latter is able to compete with both Stable Diffusion and Dall-E 3 in benchmarking tests, though this hasn’t been thoroughly tested by third pirates right now.

DeepSeek has made waves after delivering a ChatGPT rival, and it's now revealed upgraded image models to rival top image generators.

B, which it claims outperforms OpenAI’s DALL-E 3 and Stability AI’s Stable Diffusion 3 Medium in text-to-image generation tasks. This announcement, made in a report titled “Janus-Pro: Unified Multimodal Understanding and Generation with Data and Model Scaling,

Just moments after knocking ChatGPT out of the top spot in the App Store for most downloaded free apps, the company on Monday released Janus-Pro, its multimodal text-to-image AI model. Like R1, DeepSeek's flagship model, Janus-Pro is open source under an MIT license (making it commercially viable) and downloadable via HuggingFace and GitHub .

DeepSeek just dropped a new open-source multmodal AI model, Janus-Pro-7B. It is MIT opensource license. It’s multimodal (can generate images) and beats OpenAI’s DALL-E 3 and Stable Diffusion across GenEval and DPG-Bench benchmarks. This comes on top of all the R1 hype.

DeepSeek's new open-source AI model surpassed Stability AI and Microsoft-backed OpenAI's models in benchmarks for image generation, the Chinese startup said in a technical report on Monday. The company said its Janus-Pro-7B AI model outperformed OpenAI's DALL-E 3 and Stability AI's Stable Diffusion in a leaderboard ranking for image generation using text prompts.

Fresh off the viral success of its new AI model over the weekend, DeepSeek is already back with another launch – this time focusing on AI image generation. The Chinese startup has released an image-generation model called Janus-Pro,
