Back to blog Research Models FLUX 3 x mimic: The Next Generation of Video-Action Models An early version of FLUX 3, our new multimodal foundation model , is now running on robots. We gave mimic robotics early access to FLUX.3. Their strength in robot learning and deployment, combined with the model's world knowledge and BFL's foundation model expertise, produced FLUX-mimic: the next generation of video-action models. FLUX FLUX 1 and FLUX 2 generate images. FLUX 3 expands into multimodality and generates audio-visual content jointly - and, at the same time, provides the foundation of FLUX-mimic: A video-action model, developed in collaboration with mimic, running robots that have been tested and deployed at Audi. At first glance, producing convincing visual content and controlling robots seem to have little in common. One requires generating pixels, the other an understanding of how the physical world responds when you touch and manipulate it. If one model does both, it was never really only a content creation model. It is a model of how the world behaves, and content creation is one thing one can do with it. That is what FLUX 3 is. Video is the hard part …
