WTF? Image generation just got a complete game-changer! 🔥

PrismML just dropped Bonsai Image 4B — a 1-bit and ternary quantized diffusion model!

  • Model is only ~3GB (the 1-bit version even compressed to 0.93GB),

  • while the same-parameter FLUX.2 Klein 4B needs 16GB! That’s 8x+ compression!

  • 100% runs locally in your browser — WebGPU generates right on your computer/phone, no internet, no cloud, no subscription required! https://t.co/bRiScK0Hwq

HankAI (@hank_aibtc): Holy cow — OpenAI finally did something decent!!!🔥

The first open-source model of 2026 is here — Privacy Filter, released under Apache 2.0!

A 1.5B parameter PII (Personal Identifiable Information) detection powerhouse, instantly redacting sensitive info like names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, and ID numbers from text.

The key is it runs entirely in your browser locally using WebGPU, no need to send anything to a server!
