Black Forest Labs Launches FLUX 3 for Video and Robotics

Black Forest Labs has launched FLUX 3, expanding its generative AI portfolio beyond still images into video, audio and robotics. The multimodal push is significant as model developers race to handle richer media and connect AI systems with machines operating in the physical world, opening potential uses across creative production and industrial automation.

FLUX 3 can generate videos of up to 20 seconds and produce synchronized sound, marking the company’s first move into combined video-and-audio generation. Black Forest Labs is also using the underlying architecture to power FLUX-mimic, a robotics model that Audi is testing on its production lines to assess how the technology can control robotic systems in manufacturing environments.
