Is there any way to download this on my PC and run it offline? Something like a command-line tool like $ ./something "cow flying in space" > cow-in-space.png that runs with local-only data (i.e. no internet access, no DRM, no weird API keys, etc like pretty much every AI-related application i've seen recently) would be neat.

Yes, that's actually the biggest reason this is such a cool announcement! You just need to download the model checkpoints from HuggingFace[0] and follow the instructions on their Github repo[1] and and you should be good to go. You basically just need to clone the repo, set up a conda environment, and make the weights available to the scripts they provide. [0] https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion [1] https…

This feels so wrong this AI thing, strangely enough Im not that stressed. Look at the recursive side of it its hilarious. Im an artist. AI is around. Do I want to put my work online? No. So no artists put stuff online anymore? So how does future of art work exactly? Will send booklets by mail again? There is the democratic side of it. We the people ultimately decides. Those pictures are generated by using artists wor…

Yeah going offline begins to look tempting except for the part that huge amounts of how you get people to want to pay for your work is by sharing it publicly. Except then someone can come along and scrape it all and dump it into their AI training black box without giving two shits about copyright.

DALL-E 2 just got smoked. Anyone with a graphics card isn't going to pay to generate images, or have their prompts blocked because of the overly aggressive anti-abuse filter, or have to put up with the DALL-E 2 "signature" in the corner. It makes me wonder how OpenAI is going to work around this because this makes DALL-E 2 a very uncompetitive proposition. Except, of course, for people without graphics cards, but it'…

DALL-E's filters are so harsh that I find myself often in the situation where I don't even understand how what I prompted could possibly be in violation. It's a novel feeling, but utterly stifling when it comes to actual creativity, and I'm not even trying to push any NSFW boundaries, just explore the artspace. Once I can run unfiltered on my own GPU, DALL-E will never get used by me again.
