the more pressing issue is that literally all of these default to white unless you use certain language that is uh, not great.

Eeeeh, the last one could be interpreted as being asian at least, but yeah, you're not wrong.

But phew, at least it is not actively ignoring color of skin when properly prompted, so ... yaaaaay?

And it looks the coolest, so maybe the AI is trying to make up for its inherent caucasian bias.

Any idea why the local SD installation sometimes overwrites the existing output file when you go back and do an iteration with slight differences?

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't and I can't figure out what triggers it.
The output files are numbered, 00000.png counting up and sometimes it just hops back a couple of digits and starts overwriting.

Can we, as a self-imposed, unenforced rule, try to add some basic info to the image posts?

Just the name (or a short tag) for the engine and the prompt that were used?
I think that would be helpful to figure out how certain keywords affect the output.

I think the artist probably put in a bunch of prompts, took a bunch of results, and collaged them together. But still, he didn't actually draw or paint anything himself. I don't think. Anyway, yeah I guess AI art is going to get banned from stuff like this.

This is a new medium. It may not be other artists' medium of choice, but it is a tool to turn ideas into images and, yes, ultimately, art.

Everyone can take a paint brush and splash paint on a canvas like Pollock did - or in a way that resembles his work.

Why is his work considered art and mine most likely wouldn't be?
Did he control every single random splash to get the exact outcome he intended?

Where do you draw the line between randomness and intent when it comes to art?

Is reproducibility an issue? Warhol used screen printing to mass produce his art. It was part of his process.

Found this excellent SD prompt and messed around with it, I think its output is insanely good.

Replace subject and add attributes like muscular, athletic, obese as needed.

Obese (with everything else unchanged) gave me a fully nude output though. Weird.

I have been using the Lstein repo and I have hardly any trouble with extra faces when generating 512x704 images and using the built in upscaler - both 2x and 4x look very clean (2070S 8GB).

It has a web UI as well, but I hardly ever bother, I'm mostly feeding text files with a list of prompts and variations to the CLI.

I hope someone can find a way around the problem with extra anatomy on images with certain aspect ratios or exceeding the resolution threshold by too much.

Sucks that most repos now can handle 1024x768 with 8 GB of VRAM, but even invoking negative prompts to avoid deformities and additional body parts just stacks on extra heads 9 out of 10 times or creates abominations that would make Cronenberg break down in horror. Bummer.

Exceeding 576x768 seems to be where it'll start to get weird quite more often.

Or are there any workarounds for this?

Gotta say, not a big fan of the 1.5 model. I often use high cfg values (16 usually) and 100 steps for realistic and detailed facial features/textures and the outcomes across the board are way less convincing/aesthetically pleasing than with 1.4 (same prompts and seeds).

Meh. Backup all your model files.
I just hope all the different clients will keep backward compatibility going forward.

I'm using the InvokeAI WebUI and they posted an announcement video for their upcoming 2.2 release.

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).

The more I'm playing around with masking and inpainting, the more I'm jonesing for a 4090. Especially since for the final touches, I found that upscaling an image and then using the result in the unified canvas to in-paint a better quality high-resolution face in.

Much better than rendering something first at a feasible resolution and just running GPFGAN and upscaling. Means that the bounding box/mask for a face can easily be 1000x1000 pixels, which is now taking so long on a 2070S/8GB that it's starting to bother me.

Am I the only one finding it ironic that many "real artists" who - sometimes exclusively - publish fanart of widely popular intellectual properties (admittedly pretty great art, from an artisinal standpoint, don't get me wrong), are the most vocal about "AI being theft"?

I would wager that within a year, the majority of (digital) artists will be using AI to create concepts/assets they will manually refine , without batting an eye or even remembering that they huffed and puffed about it today.

This one caught my eye and gave me a good chuckle.

It's like an entirely fun new sandbox with how intuitive it is, I can't wait for full photoshop-level capabilities to eventually be available with this, there's a lot of little stuff I'd like to do with basic image manipulation between generations. But even the masking + outpainting/inpainting combo is a blast.

In case you haven't tried, unified canvas fully works with the clipboard. So nothing is stopping you from right-clicking and copying your canvas image at full size, pasting it into Photoshop/Affinity Photo/whatever, do some fine tuning or collaging (especially useful for img2img), copy flattened and paste it back into the canvas.

Speeds up things nicely. If you want to make a snapshot, just save the canvas or just your bounding box to your gallery.

InvokeAI + Protogen_X 3.4 checkpoint model and a second pass with just using inpainting on the faces after 4x upscaling the original 576x768 image.

I found that helps way better with face wonkyness than face restoration and adds a lot of detail and skin texture (which upscaling usually smoothes out way too much)
