DALLE2-pytorch VS CLIP

I was showing people Dalle2 last year and telling them how much of an impact an open source solution was going to have on, well, everything to do with art and design. (At the time Stable Diffusion had not released, not even the leak, and all hopes was on https://github.com/lucidrains/DALLE2-pytorch)

Stable diffusion is the model, MJ will use a variant and DALL-E is the old version (we have our own implementation from our distinguished fellow Lucidrains here: https://github.com/lucidrains/DALLE2-pytorch)

Sadly I don't think so. From what I understand the architecture is fixed to 1024x1024 pictures.

The code is open source, the model is not I believe. https://github.com/lucidrains/DALLE2-pytorch

Phil Wang has been fairly prolific at creating open source implementations of these text to image models. For example, here is the dalle-2 repo https://github.com/lucidrains/DALLE2-pytorch

There's already an open-source implementation of DALL-E 2 (https://github.com/lucidrains/DALLE2-pytorch) and a pretrained model for it should be released within this year.

Also true for Google's Imagen, which should be even better than DALLE-2 (and faster) https://github.com/lucidrains/imagen-pytorch.

This is possible because the original research papers behind both DALLE-2 and Imagen were publicly released.

The paper describing the model is public and has been implemented here, but that's not the hard part. The model likely requires months of compute and dozens of gigabytes of VRAM to train and run, likely costing several hundred thousand dollars.

We will also need two more libraries: OpenAI’s CLIP GitHub repo, enabling us to generate image features with the CLIP model, and the umap-learn library, which will let us apply a dimensionality reduction technique called Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) to those features to visualize them in 2D:

Biggest missing feature for all these self hosted photo hosting is the lack of a real search. Being able to search for things like "beach at night" is a time saver instead of browsing through hundreds or thousands of photos. There are trained neural networks out there like https://github.com/openai/CLIP which are quite good.

In computer vision, this is known as zero-shot learning, or zero-shot prediction, because the goal is to generate predictions without explicitly being given any example predictions to learn from. With the advent of high quality multimodal models like CLIP and foundation models like Segment Anything, it is now possible to generate remarkably good zero-shot predictions for a variety of computer vision tasks, including:

the first thing that comes to mind is CLIP: https://github.com/openai/CLIP

Whenever I’m working on semantic search applications that connect images and text, I start with a family of models known as contrastive language image pre-training (CLIP). These models are trained on image-text pairs to generate similar vector representations or embeddings for images and their captions, and dissimilar vectors when images are paired with other text strings. There are multiple CLIP-style models, including OpenCLIP and MetaCLIP, but for simplicity we’ll focus on the original CLIP model from OpenAI. No model is perfect, and at a fundamental level there is no right way to compare images and text, but CLIP certainly provides a good starting point.

in the modal card it says: pretrained text encoders (OpenCLIP-ViT/G and CLIP-ViT/L).

Command: "C:\StabilityMatrix\Packages\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts\python.exe" -m pip install https://github.com/openai/CLIP/archive/d50d76daa670286dd6cacf3bcd80b5e4823fc8e1.zip --prefer-binary

CLIP might work for your needs.
