I don't get the hype. Tested it with the same prompts I used with Midjourney, and the results are worse than in Midjourney a year ago. What am I missing?

The hype is about image editing, not pure text-to-image. Upload an input image, say what you want changed, get the output. That's the idea. Much better preservation of characters and objects.

Can it edit the photo at the original resolution?

Most of my photos these days are 48MP and I don't want to lose a ton of resolution just to edit them.

Great question. I really doubt it would be able to support any resolution. I'm sure that behind the scenes it scales it down to somewhere around 1 mp before processing even if they decide to upscale and return it back at the original resolution.

So then this doesn't really replace traditional photoshop editing of my photos I guess.
