TLDR
Qwen announced Qwen-Image-2.1-Turbo as an accelerated checkpoint built on its 7B image-generation architecture. It says the model generates 2K images from text and supports natural-language edits using a recommended eight-step sampling schedule. Weights are available on Hugging Face and ModelScope, and Qwen says Turbo and Pro APIs are live. A user says the Qwen Research License is noncommercial and requires a separate license to ship a product using the weights.
