1. Tutorial Introduction

OmniGen2 is an open-source multimodal generative model released by the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI) on June 16, 2025. It aims to provide a unified solution for various generative tasks, including text-to-image generation, image editing, and context generation. Unlike OmniGen v1, OmniGen2 designs two independent decoding paths for text and image modalities, employing non-shared parameters and separate image segmenters. This design allows OmniGen2 to be built upon existing multimodal understanding models without needing to re-adapt to VAE inputs, thus retaining its original text generation capabilities. Its core innovations lie in its dual-path architecture and self-reflection mechanism, setting a new benchmark for current open-source multimodal models. Related research papers are available.

The computing resources of this tutorial use a single RTX A6000 card, and the English prompts are currently more effective.

2. Effect display

Some examples of effects with OmniGen2:

3. Operation steps

1. Start the container

2. Usage steps

If "Bad Gateway" is displayed, it means the model is initializing. Since the model is large, please wait about 2-3 minutes and refresh the page.

The first example is image description, the second and third examples are viz images, and the remaining examples are image editing.
