Unfortunately, it seems that Expo 55.0.3 does not included fix with newer RNScreens version, which blocks us from bumping expo in our example apps look here: software-mansion/react-native-screens#3682. So we need to wait for this until this will be merged.

also TBH i don't understand why we're not just saving the image to FS on the native side, and returning the URI but that's not the point of this PR, am i missing something here?

You mean specifically TextToImage TS part which was modified in this PR?
[EDIT] Same thing is with Style transfer. Fairly honest, I don't see any reason at first so I'll create an issue for that.

Yeah, style transfer does this:

std::string StyleTransfer::postprocess(const Tensor &tensor,
                                       cv::Size originalSize) {
  cv::Mat mat = image_processing::getMatrixFromTensor(modelImageSize, tensor);
  cv::resize(mat, mat, originalSize);

  return image_processing::saveToTempFile(mat);
}

It would make sense to me that TTI does this too (and we wouldnt have to do the png stuff). This isn't really related to changes made in this PR, but a thought of mine

Ok, right style transfer is ok, but typedocs are incorrect:

  /**
   * Executes the model's forward pass, where `imageSource` can be a fetchable resource or a Base64-encoded string.
   *
   * @param imageSource - The image source to be processed.
   * @returns The stylized image as a Base64-encoded string. THIS IS INCORRECT
   */
  async forward(imageSource: string): Promise<string> {
    if (this.nativeModule == null)
      throw new RnExecutorchError(
        RnExecutorchErrorCode.ModuleNotLoaded,
        'The model is currently not loaded. Please load the model before calling forward().'
      );
    return await this.nativeModule.generate(imageSource);
  }
