CyberRealistic Z-Image Turbo is an early experimental build based on the original Z-Image Turbo.

This release should be seen as a technical experiment, not a finished or fully tuned model. It follows the original Z-Image Turbo settings and philosophy, with minimal intervention, to explore how well this setup translates into the CyberRealistic workflow.


Big thanks to Ostris for the amazing work - without him, we wouldn’t have been able to do much with this yet.

What this is not
❌ Not a polished CyberRealistic mainline release
❌ Don’t expect miracles
❌ It won’t turn weak ideas into masterpieces
❌ It won’t solve world hunger
❌ It won’t bring world peace
❌ It will not end wars, climate change, or Monday mornings
❌ It won’t make coffee or do your taxes
❌ It is not sentient, aware, or secretly judging your prompts

So… what is this then?
✅ A fun experimental build
✅ Fast, responsive, and interesting to play with
✅ Meant for experimentation, comparison, and curiosity
✅ Shared to learn from real-world usage and feedback
