Available in ComfyUI when? :).

Seriously though, this is amazing, I'm glad to see this tackled directly.

Also, I just learned from this thread that Claude is apparently usable for generating SVGs (unlike e.g. GPT-4 when I tested for it some months ago), so I'll play with that while waiting for NeuralSVG to become available.

This is excellent!

I think the utility of generating vectors is far, far greater than all the raster generation that's been a big focus thus far (DALL-E, Midjourney, etc). Those efforts have been incredibly impressive, of course, but raster outputs are so much more difficult to work with. You're forced to "upscale" or "inpaint" the rasters using subsequent generative AI calls to actually iterate towards something useful.

By contrast, generated vectors are inherently scalable and easy to edit. These outputs in particular seem to be low-complexity, with each shape composed of as few points as possible. This is a boon for "human-in-the-loop" editing experiences.

When it comes to generative visuals, creating simplified representations is much harder (and, IMO, more valuable) than creating highly intricate, messy representations.

Aside: I've been having a very hard time prompting ChatGPT to spit out ASCII art. It really seems to not be able to do it.

     Here is an ASCII art representation of a hopping rabbit:

     ```
      (\(\  
      ( -.-)  
      o_(")(")
     ```

     This is a simple representation of a rabbit with its ears up and in a hopping stance. Let me know if you'd like me to adjust it!

Pretty good if you ask me. What would a proper hopping rabbit ASCII art look like?
