GLM-Image: The New Leader in Open Source Image Generation, Solving Text Rendering Challenges

Have you noticed that while AI image generation quality is getting higher, it often makes jokes when dealing with “logic” and “text”? You might have encountered this: you want to generate a poster with a specific slogan, and the AI gives you a bunch of alien-like gibberish. Or, you describe a complex scene, asking for a cat on the left, a dog on the right, and a giraffe holding a book in the middle, but the AI completely mixes up the positions. This is actually a pain point of current mainstream Diffusion Models.
