CogVideo VS stable-diffusion-ui

Additionally two open source demo models [CogVideo[(https://github.com/THUDM/CogVideo) by a groups of cs students a model by [Antonia Antonova](https://antonia.space/text-to-video-generation) and have presented their own innovative methods of generating video from text

The second thing that will happen is the appearance of AI video and audio. Google has shown two programs for video generation, one which is fairly high quality and the other which can make long videos with several scenes. Meta has also demonstrated their own. We've already seen other projects like CogVideo, as well as many others that are currently being worked on. It's likely that these techniques will become so refined that over the next year or two, they'll have a similar boom to image generation programs. And eventually, they'll have a similar application in video editing, once coherence is adequate enough. Select a person's shirt, and it stays that for the remainder of the scene. Change an actor's hairstyle in real time, or add characters that didn't exist into a scene and let the computer figure out the desired level of realism. This'll revolutionize VFX to a degree where making an effects heavy will be less about wrangling complex toolsets and more about making aesthetic choices of style and placement.

Characters and dialogue are effectively solved, just look at GPT-3.

The entity behind StableDiffusion is also supporting generative music art, so let's see what is coming out of that: https://www.harmonai.org/

We are currently far away from generating a production quality movie with AI, but I don't think it's going to be nearly as long as a lifetime. In my opinion, we'll have high quality AI shorts within the decade.

CogVideo and a CogView web app.

A better comparison to AI music generation would be video generation, which has not improved much since i saw first examples some years ago. The last iteration is stuff like CogVideo and this is only able to generate 4 second videos with mid-strong artifacts.

CMDR2's 1-Click Installer

Hey so i'm currently using easydiffusion but its missing one feature i've been really wanting to play around with recently. Video, and i've heard from some others that its one of the easiest to install but least peformant and worse options you can get; so what do you guys suggest?

Or just use the CPU and it works, just takes a few minutes. stable diffusion cpu But don't let me stop you, I need one too.

No. CUDA is very straightforward. There is even a nice project that sets up Stable Diffusion for you. With basically no knowledge about AI i was able to get it to run. If i recall correctly i just needed to install one dependency manually, and i was provided with nice web gui for playing with it.

You could read the guide first: https://github.com/cmdr2/stable-diffusion-ui/wiki/UI-Overview or Start easy diffusion

Thanks and your right there are loads, trying out this from GitHub

Simplest start https://github.com/cmdr2/stable-diffusion-ui

First is Easy Diffusion, you need to be online just once to run the installer. It downloads several extra files. Let it finish and then make some test pictures. Exit everything (browser window and text window). Then anytime you want to run it, just turn off internet and run the batch file to start it up. No internet!

Yesterday I got Easy Diffusion to work (on Windows only), but it refuses to use the GPU and instead uses the CPU, which of course, takes nearly an hour to make a 512x512 image.
