This could be super cool for logos. I've tried using Stable Diffusion to generate logos and it does pretty good at helping brainstorm, but the text is always gibberish so you can use its idea, but you have to add your own text which basically means creating a logo from scratch using its designs as inspiration.

You can't use this to make logos for any commercial product, and it's not safe to use it for hobby projects either, based on the current model license.

I would be more interested in image-to-text models. Does someone know of any decent model? I saw the GPT4 demo, and they showed that they do image-to-text... but then that was actually a fake (i.e., the model was interpreting the image filename).

MidJourney has the describe function which is kind of like that. Not sure how decent it actually is

GitHub: https://github.com/deep-floyd/IF Colab Notebook for running the model based on the diffusers library: https://colab.research.google.com/github/huggingface/noteboo... Hugging Face Space for testing the model: https://huggingface.co/spaces/DeepFloyd/IF Note that the model is substantially more compute-intensive than Stable Diffusion, so it may be slower even though that space is running on an A100.

I tried the HF Space and it generates images of 64x64 resolution, which are basically useless.

It generates 64x64 for the first stage, but there's a button to upscale your favorite 64x64 image to usable resolution.

Well, surely you don't expect to just take the generated stuff and use it right away? For logos you usually need something that some entity can hold the claim on, so you probably need a human touch in any case.

Can you provide a source on gpt4 image model being fake? I haven’t heard that before, though I have wondered why I haven’t heard anything about the image part and don’t have access to image processing myself.

AFAIK, converting an image to a text summary isn't really a thing by itself. The related work would be "visual reasoning" which is the ability to ask things about the image in natural language and get responses back also in natural language.

I believe the current SOTA test for NLVR is VQAv2[0] or GQA[1].

For a fast-but-less-robust model, you can use a ViT encode/GPT-2 decoder model: https://huggingface.co/nlpconnect/vit-gpt2-image-captioning

For a more-robust-but-hard-to-run model, you can use BLIP2: https://huggingface.co/Salesforce/blip2-opt-2.7b

Is this intended to replace Stable Diffusion? Somebody want to give the eli5?

This does outperform Stable Diffusion 2.1, but uses a different architecture and requires more memory and compute. Stable Diffusion runs its denoising process in a compressed "latent space" which is how it was able to be so compute-efficient compared to other diffusion models. It also uses the (relatively) small text encoder from OpenAI's CLIP model to encode user prompts. Both of these optimizations meant that it co…

This was an excellent summary, ty.
