NVIDIA released Qwen-Image-Flash, an image generation model built on a four-step DMD2-distilled version of Qwen/Qwen-Image.

• The release uses NVIDIA’s FastGen, Model Optimizer, and AutoModel in the distillation pipeline.
• NVIDIA says the packaged scheduler is configured for a four-step, shift-3 trajectory while keeping the base architecture intact.
• The post links the model on Hugging Face and frames it as a practical fast-generation variant of Qwen-Image.
