Stable Diffusion
Stable Diffusion is an open-source AI model that generates detailed images from text descriptions, similar to DALL-E but freely available for download and local use.
Stable Diffusion is a latent text-to-image diffusion model capable of generating photo-realistic images given any text input. It was developed by Stability AI in collaboration with researchers from CompVis LMU and Runway.
Unlike some proprietary AI image generators, Stable Diffusion is open-source, allowing developers to run it on their own hardware and customize it for various applications. This has led to a flourishing ecosystem of tools, interfaces, and modifications built around the core model.
The model can be used for various creative tasks, including generating original artwork, design concepts, illustrations, and even video frames. It supports techniques like image-to-image transformation, inpainting, and outpainting.
Stable Diffusion has gone through several versions, with each iteration improving image quality, coherence, and the model's understanding of prompts. The open nature of the project has accelerated innovation in the AI image generation space.
