this guide starts by promoting their gumroad book which i dont want. currently using a1111 off of https://colab.research.google.com/github/TheLastBen/fast-sta... and hoping to go from there

Re: How to make a QR code with Stable Diffusion
#33As an engineer, the lack of consideration for the matter of how much one should corrupt a signal (which might be scanned under different conditions, such as different light levels and resolutions) is grating to me. It’s like scratching a design onto the bottom of an audio CD, playing it, and if it works on your CD player, shipping it. “Works for me”

None of what I wrote impacts the CRC calculation.
Diffusion models cannot generate a qr code by itself. The article even shows you need to generate the base image yourself. What you are proposing would mean bruteforcing the QR codes until we see a better shape.
edit: It would also be beneficial to have a script which automatically distorts the image in various ways and checks to see if it would be recognized by a QR code scanner, and give a score so you can see how likely it would be to be scannable in various conditions.

#36The funny thing is that no-one AFAICT has realized that the same content can be encoded in different-looking QR codes. Beside the obvious (different error-correction levels), the content itself can be changed while maintaining its semantic meaning (e.g. " https://example.com/foo ", "HTTPS://EXAMPLE.COM/foo", or "HtTpS://eXaMpLe.CoM/foo" are all semantically identical) and even the QR encoding itself can be tweaked (e…
If you scan it, you realize it's putting lots of "junk" at the end of the URL that doesn't change its meaning, but is used to tweak how the QR code looks.

I think this has been done for a long time? I made this one that looks like a VLC logo and links to VLC, back in 2013. https://imgur.com/a/rq8WzGm inspired by some post I read at the time.
