The former Stability team's new project has raised 300 million USD, and the AI image generation technology behind Musk's Grok.

[Coin World] The former Stability AI team has started their own venture, Black Forest Labs, and they have just secured a large check—$300 million directly in Series B funding, with a valuation skyrocketing to $3.25 billion. This round of funding was primarily led by Salesforce Ventures and Anjney Midha, with familiar faces like a16z and NVIDIA also participating.

Their flagship Flux 2 image generation model is currently gaining a lot of attention, especially since it provides technical support for Musk's Grok, which has made many people remember this name. Now giants in design tools like Adobe and Canva are using their technology, and it seems they have firmly established themselves in the AI-generated image sector. The funding is being used to continue investing in R&D, and the next generation model is likely to reach new heights.

Is a valuation of 3.25 billion really just like that? It feels like there's too much money in the raw image track, anyone can raise a round.

It's the old routine again, big companies throwing money to grab the track, and Flux isn't exactly black technology... However, it's indeed smart to use Grok for image generation, riding the wave while conveniently binding the ecosystem. The likes of Adobe and Canva are using it, which indicates that the technology is indeed up to par. Is a valuation of 3.25 billion a bit inflated? How high the next-generation model can roll depends on what happens; let's hope it doesn't end up being another PPT financing.

ngl, the classic playbook—ex-stability crew, massive funding, suddenly everyone's their customer. seen this movie before, the vulnerability surface just got exponentially wider. flux 2 powering grok sounds cool until someone exploits the architectural flaw nobody's talking about yet.
