Artificial Analysis' latest leaderboard places xAI's Grok Imagine Image 2.0 at #4 on text-to-image, the highest-ranked model outside OpenAI and a 14-place climb over the previous generation, landing on the quality-vs-price Pareto frontier.
Released in August, the model supports text-to-image, image editing, and multi-reference generation with up to five input images. It jumped from #18 to #4 in text-to-image and #16 to #10 in image editing, with the largest gains in Knowledge, Text Rendering, and Lighting.
