While DeepSeek mania continues to take over the AI world, the Chinese AI company quickly followed up with its first image generation model. Dubbed Janus Pro, it is DeepSeek’s take on a large language model that unifies multimodal understanding and image generation, competing with existing models like Stable Diffusion, Google’s Imagen 3, and OpenAI’s DALL-E 3.

DeepSeek is a threat to established players, but can Janus Pro match up?
​

DeepSeek’s claim to fame is its low cost of training and access while retaining the performance and accuracy offered by OpenAI. So, a model that can match or exceed the capabilities of the best AI image generators right now would be a serious threat to efforts made by Adobe and other well-established players.
