People are making so much cool stuff with it, and its capabilities continue to expand as the open-source community experiments with it.\n\nIn this post I'll cover some techniques you can use to generate synthetic training data to help improve the accuracy, diversity, and stylistic range of your fine-tuned Flux models.\n\nGetting started\n\nTo use the techniques covered in this post, you should have an existing fine-tuned Flux model that needs a little improvement.\n\nIf you haven't created your own fine-tuned Flux mode synthetic data?\n\nSynthetic data is artificially generated data that mimics real-world data. In the case of image generation models, synthetic data refers to images created by the model, rather than real photographs or human-generated artwork. Using synthetic data can help create more varied and comprehensive training datasets than using real-world images alone.\n\nTip 1: Generate training data from a single image\n\nThe consistent-character model is an image generator from the prolific and inimitable @fofr. It takes a single image of person as input and produces multiple images of them in a variety of poses, styles, and expressions. Using consistent-character is a great way to help jumpstart your Flux fine-tuning, especially if you don't have a lot of training images to start.\n\nThe fofr/consistent-character model produces many images from a single input.\n\nHere's a quick example of how to use consistent-character with the Replicate JavaScript client to generate a batch of training images from a single image input (LONG TEXT REMOVED)"

How much will scraping Replicate Blog Scraper cost you?

That's why the best course of action is to run a test scrape with a small sample of input data and limited output.
