🔴 PERFUSION: a generative AI model from NVIDIA that fits on a floppy disk 💾

It takes up just 100KB. Yes, you heard it right, much less than any picture you take with your mobile phone! Why is this revolutionary and can change everything?

I'll tell you 🧵👇 Image
Perfusion is a really lightweight "text-to-image" model (100KB) that also trains in just 4 minutes.

Image
It allows creatively portraying objects and characters, maintaining their identity, using a novel mechanism they have called "Key-Locking." Image
Perfusion can also combine individually learned concepts into a single generated image. Image
Moreover, it allows controlling the balance between visual alignment and the text prompt at the time of inference, covering the entire Pareto front with just a single trained model. Image
And why is this revolutionary?

For several reasons. Image
1️⃣ Such great optimization means that we will soon have truly powerful AI models integrated into our mobile phones, computers, etc. Much lighter, faster to train, and consuming less computing power. Image
2️⃣ The costs of training models will be drastically reduced in the future with optimizations like this and new techniques that allow everything to be streamlined.
3️⃣ If, in just 100KB, a new technique (key-locking) has achieved such a large increase in the coherence of objects/characters between generations, as in this example, it means that we have only SCRATCHED THE SURFACE of what the future Generative AI will be able to do. Image
In short, a massive piece of news that I don't understand why it's going so unnoticed. Don't be fooled by "the low quality" of the images. The potential it has is truly MASSIVE. Image

Midjourney is great, but it's obvious that @LeonardoAi_ is gaining ground with each update. 🤯

New V3 Prompt Magic + Alchemy (SDXL) pipelines in action! https://t.co/ZsKr3OeDOGtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Happy Birthday, Midjourney!

One year ago Today:

What will we have in a year?

I believe the following will be (in Generative AI in general):

1. Further improving consistency across generations.
2. Video.
3. Music.

I do this thing where I compare images every now and then. Then I look back at them months later and both seem very weak to me, haha:

OK, this is insane 🤯

More test upscaling images to super high res using AI:

⬅️ Left: a portion of an original Midjourney image
➡️ Right: my upscaled version using a complex pipeline in SD

Creating photography content ON THE FLY with AI!

A game changer for photographers!

⬅️ Left: original
➡️ Right: upscaled

Here you have the original & two super high res upscaled versions:

Original:

High rest test 1 (too much HDR but insane detail: https://t.co/YgPWpnQPoZ

High res test 2 (well balanced): https://t.co/3zJpLrKesCbestaiprompts.art/img/landscape2…

🔥 New Google paper on Generative AI 🔥

StyleDrop 👉 Virtually perfectly acquires the style of any image.

It is light years away from the "initial image" we had until now in Midjourney or Stable Diffusion.

Link and details 🧵👇 ImageImageImageImage
Ok, this is wild 🤯 Image

🔥 Still playing with Stable Diffusion! 🔥

I can't believe that something has managed to keep me, even temporarily, from Midjourney. But this is so much fun!

Some generations 🧵👇 Image
That's what you think, Captain Cocky! Image

🔥 Leonardo AI brand new Alchemy pipeline is VERY powerful 🔥

Yesterday I was playing with Stable Diffusion and today have spent some hours with Leonardo. Well, I have to admit Leonardo is tons of times easier to master.

🔁 RT if you are interested in a detailed tutorial too! twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImage
Link 🔗 leonardo.ai Image
So, I guess now I have to publish both tutorials 😅
