Missing image run for Ming-Image-0.1-Design
The free demo rejected the documented repeats because of its ZeroGPU allowance; a recorder failure leaves one earlier poster outcome unknown. The current remaining demo allowance could not be verified. A local attempt using the official Design weights reached the BF16 transformer on MPS, but was stopped before any image as system-wide memory swapping rose sharply. The original script provides no verified memory-saving execution route for this Mac. Checked November 3, 2026. Test the exact model version with an available demo allowance or an authorized runtime with sufficient resources.
