Le Chat, France’s response to Chat GPT and Deepseek, seems to be doing better in image generation than ChatGPT

1. all 3 are fake though ,where is the Croissant or Brioche?

2. are we surprised Le Chat is better at rendering cats?

3. Only chatgpt understood the assignment. Everybody knows the Eiffel tower is visible from everywhere in Paris.

4. That’s because Le Chat uses *”Flux Ultra”* from german company *”Black Forest Labs”* – it’s up there with the best image generation models / the best image generation model.

5. *Generate me like one of your French cats.*

6. European Cat Superiority!

7. The image generator is Flux from Black Forest labs (Germany). Very happy to see another European cooperation working out well! 🇫🇷❤️🇩🇪🇪🇺🇪🇺

8. I like the one with the cat snorting the tea

9. What an ***amazing*** name.

10. Fuck generative AI

11. Please, this is [Le Chat](https://lechat.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/droit-au-but.jpg).

12. It’s using Flux so I’m not surprised.

13. Le chat génère-moi le chat

14. The bar is pretty low, to be honest

15. You tried cats and yet you speak to us like you had no bias in this comparison.

16. ChatGPT is notoriously bad at image generation, so this isn’t really surprising.

17. I tried le Chat yesterday with a difficult question about historical trivia. It told me “I don’t know, it’s not in my sources, which are this and this.”

    ChatGPT went into hallucination mode instead and with big confidence gave me three different totally wrong answers.

    So there’s that at least.

18. Let chat is Le Boss!

19. Holy shit that is photorealistic. In my time, the XBOX 360 was the peak of technology

20. Interesting how all AI images still have this totally even full contrast range, at least it makes them easier to detect.

21. I just hope Le Chat moves away from using American chips.

22. I want to pet Le Cat

23. I love Le Chat so much I actually switched to it from Perplexity and I’m using it daily.

    Wanna know how smart Le Chat is? It’s the only AI that doesn’t mix Croatian and Serbian language whenever you ask it something. All other AIs fail here, even the latest models of ChatGPT. Croatian and Serbian are very close (have a lot of common words, different grammar though). This is why AI tends to mix those too; some even mix latin and cyrillic alphabets when answering which isn’t acceptable for me.

    Le Chat never does this and really answers in language you ask it.

24. It works really well overall IMHO.

25. Wait Le chat in’t a meme? I thought it was? Where can i get more info about this?

26. Le chat genere moi un chat
    monsieur oui monsieur

27. Yesterday I was comparing Le Chat and ChatGPT, asking them to explain certain grammatical constructs in Yiddish and German. Le Chat was not only more detailed in its replies, but also more correct.

28. Le Chat uses Flux. Which is like one of the best models atm.

29. I shouldnt be cheering this on at all but since the prompt included the word “realistic” I have to say the top right grok thumb is actually the most “realistic” looking one to me and the most likely to fool me.

30. I will say I get the same prompt to Gemini and it’s [very creepy](https://i.imgur.com/0blerZf.jpeg)

31. Including Grok and not including Midjourney is certainly a choice.

32. As a local (meaning free, on my own machine) Flux.Dev user I’m not surprised that a tool using Flux.Pro generates great pictures, but it’s cool that there is European collaboration going on.

33. Le Chat was literally made for this

34. Le Cat

35. I think Grok wins that round. At least it made an *attempt* to actually get the cat to sip the tea.

36. Grok is actually really quite good with photorealism. The problem is that it took your ‘sipping tea’ request literally, resulting in some strange looking images, whereas Le Chat ignored that request (for better or worse). If you ask Grok to generate an image of a cat next to a cup of tea it will look at least as good or better than what Le Chat generated.

37. Only the Grok images show anything remotely near “sipping tea”.

    It is often exactly that tradeoff – prompt adherence vs an actually good loking picture.

38. God I hate that ChatGPT look so much. That shit over worked lighting effect, the dead colours, and that airbrushed feel to it all. 🤢🤮

39. Imagine bragging about how the slop you make is better than anyone else’s slop

40. Well at least this cancer is european I guess so there’s that

41. Well, an American AI can never understand European lifestyle 😁 The Le Chat version not only looks but also feels real.

42. I know we’re supposed to be patriotic about our European company but the generation of more realistic looking fake images is not very comforting

43. I guarantee you whoever came up with that name is a government official making six figures a year.
