The most built-upon model on the Hugging Face Hub isn’t Llama or Qwen. It’s FLUX.1-dev from Black Forest Labs, a German lab: 43k derivative models. Europe trained ~8% of the open-model compute on the Hub, but ~18% of what people build on top of it is European. Build or
FLUX.1-dev Leads Hugging Face Derivative Models
Thom Wolf says FLUX.1-dev by Black Forest Labs tops Hugging Face derivatives with 43k models; Europe trains about 8% of open-model compute but inspires about 18% of builds.
