This is really exciting to see. I applaud Stability AI's commitment to open source and hope they can operate for as long as possible.

There was one thing I was curious about... I skimmed through the executive summary of the paper but couldn't find it. Does Stable Diffusion 3 still use CLIP from Open AI for tokenization and text embeddings? I would naively assume that they would try to improve on this part of the model's architecture to improve adherence to text and image prompts.
