Neat.

Unsolicited tip: To prevent the double heads when rendering at 1024x1024, you can either use the HighRes Fix setting in Automatic1111, or render at the model's native resolution (512x512 for SD 1.x, 768x768 for SD 2.0) and then use the upscaler of your choice.

Been looking at some of the things posted in this thread and woof, methinks I'm gonna have to make a hard pivot from my years of art practice, ain't no way I can compete with an algorithm like this, good lord :stare:

Not sure what you do or what your workflow is, and I don't mean this like it's an easy thing to do, but all of these things being posted are really cool yeah, like 90% of the way there and honestly well past the 'good enough' line for most people especially the general public. HOWEVER all of these AI results can use a bit of finishing, just a person to go over them a little bit, and they'd be 110%. I went to school for art though never worked professionally, and it's very advantageous to have that ability to work with the system to get really good results knowing the language.

This stuff is an incredible tool, that's all it is. People have already been posting in here about how they are using it to create stuff they'd normally do it.

In my case I'm not sure how you'd create photos of things that can't exist besides a time consuming 3D modeling -> rendering setup for each image.












Each one of these can be brought up to another level with just the most minor of tweaking. The biggest draw for this tech is making these ~real~ photos that couldn't exist in any other way without an insane amount of work. As someone that never developed any drawing skill these tools are amazing.

Yeah too far, my bad. I'm feeling :goonsay: because of the current empathy for illustrator jobs where it didn't seem to appear for other recent disruption. Music, factory work, even programming itself with Github Copilot. Gotta get out of the crab bucket mentality and focus on the bigger picture

Found out that https://github.com/ashawkey/stable-dreamfusion allows one to generate 3D models based off Stable-Diffusion prompts and spent half a day yesterday getting it installed only to find out that I'm very unlikely to be able to run it with my 4GB VRAM. And I'm a couple of significant price drops away from being able to afford 16GB GFX cards.

My only hope is that others do some cool stuff with it.

Maybe if it gets more attention someone'll figure out how to lower the VRAM requirements sufficiently.

I've been using my apple pencil a lot more recently drawing stuff to throw at the AI so I can get ideas across that it struggles with. Also been doing ridiculous hack Photoshop jobs using MSPaint. It would definitely be easier if I were actually good at either of those things

I am using AI images to teach myself photo retouching. The fact that so many details are hosed up is great for giving you little things to practice on. Fixing up eyes, teeth, fingers and removing the occasional extra limb are great exercises.

I am using Affinity Photo though and not MSPaint. Highly recommended if you don't want to spend buckloads of $$$ on Adobe (even if the recently released v2.0 came with a minor price hike, I'm still on v1.x though, good enough for me).

Cross-posting this since it's very relevant to the thread. I'm doing an illustrated Choose Your Own Adventure version of Jurassic Park in the Let's Play forum, a sort of side-quel that takes place the same day as the first movie. The whole thing is powered by (mostly) AI imagery, and hopefully will be a good bit of fun:

Jurassic Park: Edge of Chaos



Planning to incorporate AI text prompts, too, but we'll see how chaotic it gets.

Art isn't a zero sum game. You don't win art.

Art is about creating. A computer is just a tool for creating art. AI isn't going to destroy art the same way Photoshop didn't destroy art and cameras didn't destroy art.

AI won't destroy the ability to create meaningful art for the sake of making art. People are always gonna want to do and want to see that. And people definitely put a premium on 'genuine' that you can't get through AI.
But you can't pay your rent with emotion and meaning.

It'll certainly hurt job opportunities for people who are paid to make soulless corporate art, stuff that exists to make money or get clicks or whatever rather than to send a message. Like ads, or stock images for clickbait articles or whatever.


In 5 years It'll likely be a lot harder for artists to make a living doing art as their day job. That kinda sucks. UBI would be cool.

Since the earlier posts about dinosaurs was with MidJourney I decided to try it out with Stable Diffusion 2.0.

Raw text-image outputs with no cherry picking, 1204x768 (besides brachiosaurus where I flipped the ratio) which will account for the prevalence of extra limbs:



"dinosaur"



"stegosaurus"



"triceratops"




"ankylosaurus"



"brachiosaurus"

Considering the prompt is just the one word I think Stable Diffusion 2 is quite good at dinosaurs. With a bit of tweaking I think you could make some pretty radical dinosaurs. If your intent is to make pictures of already-existing ones though it's going to be difficult, a lot easier to make dinosaur-like things. Just claim they are never before seen ones!

you can see examples here:

based on those I don't think it's creating models in the traditional polygonal way, it's doing something weird like a bunch of intersecting planes with alpha textures

GIMP is terrible. Krita is actually an alright photoshop replacement though, and it has a stable diffusion plugin.

Support for the new .safetensors format landed in webui a bit ago. Now you can download all the shady model weights you like without worrying about potential viruses or code-execution exploits since unlike a .ckpt file it only contains weight numbers and not executable code.
Plus it loads significantly faster than .ckpt files.

For example there is now a .safetensors download for the Anything-v3 model that a few people were suspicious of, IIRC its .ckpt version set off some false positives on some antivirus.

I was curious what's missing from Photoshop elements and... ouch:
Features: Many of the Photoshop features are missing including the following:
– Lack of 16-bit support in Photoshop Elements which results in loss in functionality of the Magic Wand, Selection Brush, the family of Type tools, Recompose, Cookie Cutter, Straighten, the brush based tools (Paint Brush, Eraser, Dodge, Blur, etc. and the shape based tools (Rectangle, Ellipse, Custom Shape, etc.). Many filters do not work either.
– Smart Objects are not fully supported which means you cannot create or open embedded files as Smart Objects
– There are limitations with the Color Picker functions
– There is no support for a Channels panel or a Channel Mixer Adjustment/Enhancement
– Many vector based tools are not available including the Pen family of tools and there is no Paths panel.

Apparently the 2022 Photoshop Elements has fewer features than the 2012 Photoshop CS6, which was the last 'standalone' version of photoshop they released before switching to the creative cloud subscription-only model.
