Qwen-Image-2.1

Why it matters
Single 7B model unifying generation and editing with native 2K resolution and up to 10 reference images.
What you could build with it
Generate and edit marketing imagery with native 2K output and multi-reference editing, with day-0 Diffusers and ComfyUI support.
Does it hold up?
