OSTRIS about HiDream-O1 LoRA on ToolKit

I am running my first test on training a HiDream-O1 LoRA on AI Toolkit. I don't want to get too excited too early. But this is the coolest model I have EVER seen. Super efficient pixel space. No VAE. No Text Encoder. Trains super fast. This is an industry changing innovation!

Why is realistic skin such an issue for models?

The internet is full of normal, candid photos of people with natural skin texture. Theres a subset of heavily retouched editorial or beauty photography with that smooth porcelain skin look, but that’s clearly a minority of all human images online. Most photos of people are just regular snapshots where skin looks like actual skin.

So why do image models, especially open source ones, struggle so much to generate realistic looking people out of the box? Why do they default to this plasticky, airbrushed, over-retouched aesthetic when that’s not what the majority of the training data actually looks like?

Its striking how hard it is for models to reproduce something as common and statistically ordinary as normal human skin without needing specialized prompting, LoRAs, finetunes, or upscalers. Natural skin texture should arguably be the baseline behavior, yet it very obviously isnt. Why?

Which workflows are you guys using now for LTX 2.3?

Since prompt relay and other new workflows have released recently, it looks like there are far more options to use ltx 2.3, what are some of the best quality, or coolest workflows you guys have seen or used so far?

I built a site to create free AI videos using LTX 2.3 running on my own GPUs

TenStrip's Workflow is the first LTX 2.3 workflow I found that actually works for Spicy Content it's almost like using the old Grok.

The Anima realism model is crazy good. Don’t miss it!

I’ve been messing with the anima realism model posted here (https://civitai.red/models/2585622/ultrareal-fine-tune-anima). If you want prompt adherence for weird stuff, it does a really good job. What’s cool is you can do hybrid danbooru / natural language and it just goes with it.

I’m stunned at how good it is and surprised it’s not getting more traction, especially since this is the authors experiment and the model and this finetune aren’t done yet. The output is decent if you prompt well. It’s not as photo realistic as ZIT or whatever but it will do all your weird danbooru tags other ones blush over. I actually think for the amateur photography all you guys want here it’s a good model.

I do 50 steps , 5cfg, euler (not ancestral). Anima is slow as hell on my Mac for such a small model but hoping the devs improve it somehow. It also works with the turbo lora!

Additionally I saw someone extracted the realism ‘stuff’ as a lora. It’s in the comments of the civitai page, linked in a random Google Drive.

Anyway try it out and if the author sees this thanks dude. Lmk if I can chip in for another training run. There is so much potential here.
