Text-to-image models fail as reliable training data generators

A new research paper published on arXiv investigates the effectiveness of modern text-to-image models as generators for synthetic training data. Despite producing visually appealing and prompt-adherent images, these models have shown a decline in classification accuracy when used to train classifiers. The study found that newer models tend to generate images that are too aesthetically focused, lacking the diversity needed for robust real-world data distribution coverage. This challenges the assumption that advancements in image realism directly translate to improvements in data realism for training AI models. AI

IMPACT Challenges the assumption that visual realism in generated images equates to useful training data for AI models, highlighting a need for new approaches.

    When Pretty Isn't Useful: Investigating Why Modern Text-to-Image Models Fail as Reliable Training Data Generators

    arXiv:2602.19946v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models produce visually stunning images and demonstrate excellent prompt following. But do they perform well as synthetic vision data generators? In this work, we revisit the promise of…
