# FLUX.1-merged

This repository provides the merged params for [`black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev`](https://huggingface.co/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev)
and [`black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell`](https://huggingface.co/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-schnell). Please be aware of the licenses of both
the models before using the params commercially.

## Inference code

pipeline = FluxPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "sayakpaul/FLUX.1-merged", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
).to("cuda")
image = pipeline(

    width=1184,
    max_sequence_length=512,
    generator=torch.manual_seed(0),
).images[0]
image.save("merged_flux.png")
