If you want to skip straight to scripts, click here! Stable Diffusion Release! We knew the world would not be the same – A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. And just like that, the whole world changes. Stable Diffusion and its openness is a massive improvement to the tools we’ve been using in this space and our ability to modify/understand them. It was bound to happen, but I am very impressed with both how quickly it rolled out and how powerful the tool is....

DALL-E Homebrew In this post, we’ll look at getting setup with running your own A.I. image generator. You need a Linux system with a CUDA enabled card to get this working through to the end. I did get the basic txt-2img script working in Windows. Unfortunately, for the July released retrieval-augmented diffusion models, you need scann in order to index the openimages dataset, which is only available on Linux. WSL worked fine for me....

GPT-3 Raps A while back on Reddit, a rap about pencils written by GPT-3 was posted, which prompted me to do some Googling to try to generate and vocode the lyrics. I tried this with music myself a while back with Coqui-aiTTS and didn’t have great results.

The Famous and Hilarious Comedian GPT-3’s davinci model was used.

You are a hilarious and famous comedian with incredible perception and imagination. create a set of photographs showing humorous and absurd scenarios. Describe each in detail....

Reproducing Vinyl Stickers In today’s post, we’ll look at creating and recreating vinyl stickers. This is one of the things Midjourney is particularly good at that could fairly easily translate into real or existing use cases. Services Used Today, and probably in the future, we’re just going to look at results with Craiyon and MidJourney. When I get access to DALL-E 2, I will start including that. Starry AI may make a reappearance when we look at art reproduction or creating new artworks in an artist’s style....
