DALLE2-pytorch VS x-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.

Now is it possible that some of these images were a part of train set of these models ? Maybe, but we can't really be sure without having access to the original dataset. To this end, are there any works that study this phenomenon more deeply and technically (with metrics etc.) ? I know few attempts to reproduce DALL-E and CLIP on open datasets but not sure whether such studies have been performed. Unfortunately I lack both the resources as well as technical competency to perform such studies myself but would love to see if you folks know anything about this.
