Krea 2 Turbo Distill LoRA cuts image generation steps by half

A new LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) model called Krea2 Turbo Distill has been released, designed to significantly speed up image generation. This LoRA allows users to reduce the number of steps required by the Krea 2 Turbo model from 8 to 4, resulting in approximately 1.6 times faster image creation. The LoRA also aims to preserve or even enhance fine texture details lost in the faster 4-step process, with performance metrics showing it maintains texture energy and reduces visual errors compared to the original 4-step model. AI

IMPACT Enables faster image generation by reducing processing steps, potentially making AI art tools more accessible and efficient.
