Animating Stable Diffusion txt2img Outputs with Deforum and Vision of Chaos If the newness and wow factor of A.I. image generators and Stable Diffusion has worn off for you, deforum animations may be just what you need – While we may not yet be at the point we can scare audiences like the Lumières did with their train video and are probably more in the Magic Lantern stage of development, I had a ton of fun generating the animations for this article....

Image Refinement with Cross Attention Control If you’ve been keeping up with the latest Stable Diffusion forks, you may have seen prompt editing get merged to the master branch of the Automatic111 repo a few days ago. There’s not a lot of information on how to use this other than a comment in the commit. I believe the repo this originated from is Cross Attention Control. The README here describes more uses than the AUTOMATIC111 commit comment talks about....

Easy Stable Diffusion + Textual Inversion! Wow – The pace at which the AI Image generation space has changed is something I have seldom seen in my life as a nerd. It reminds me of early Bitcoin tools or the Apple app store when it seemed like every day there was some new amazing app/tool/offering. I think SD is even more engaging for the community than these since it’s both open source and produces something tangible and fun (looking at blockchain ledgers takes some imagination to see why it’s ‘cool’)...

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....
