PID method enhances Krea 2 image generation quality

A new method called PID (Pixel Diffusion) has been developed to improve image generation quality in Krea 2, which previously used a suboptimal VAE. PID decodes images directly in pixel space, bypassing the VAE to enhance detail, color, and contrast. This method requires significant VRAM and necessitates disabling SageAttention to avoid black images. AI

IMPACT Improves image generation quality for users of Krea 2 by addressing VAE limitations.
