dalle-playground VS dalle-flow

Next, we want the code in the https://github.com/hrichardlee/dalle-playground repo, and we want to construct a pip environment from the backend/requirements.txt file in that repo. We were almost able to use the saharmor/dalle-playground repo as-is, but we had to make one change to add the jax[cuda] package to the requirements.txt file. In case you haven’t seen jax before, jax is a machine-learning library from Google, roughly equivalent to Tensorflow or PyTorch. It combines Autograd for automatic differentiation and XLA (accelerated linear algebra) for JIT-compiling numpy-like code for Google’s TPUs or Nvidia’s CUDA API for GPUs. The CUDA support requires explicitly selecting the [cuda] option when we install the package.

Jina AI is really into generative AI. It started out with DALL·E Flow, swiftly followed by DiscoArt. And then…🦗🦗*🦗🦗. At least for a while…

you can host your own https://github.com/jina-ai/dalle-flow

For example for all the multimodal stuff like clipseg and upscalers, I'm using isolated executors through jina flow: https://github.com/jina-ai/dalle-flow/tree/main/executors

clipseg is an image segmentation method used to find a mask for an image from a prompt. I implemented it as an executor for dalle-flow and added it to my bot yasd-discord-bot.

Merged into [dalle-flow](https://github.com/jina-ai/dalle-flow/pull/112) this morning and works on my Discord bot [yasd-discord-bot](https://github.com/AmericanPresidentJimmyCarter/yasd-discord-bot).

https://github.com/jina-ai/dalle-flow with ports of some code from https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion plus some stuff specific to my uses (mostly more exposed settings and meta data on the outputs).

dalle flow - a more advanced version of dall-e mini, running dall-e mega and a diffusion model (free colab), free

Another option is https://github.com/jina-ai/dalle-flow combines DALL-E Mini with some other image processing models, and they have a pre-built Docker image that you could run locally. However, because it loads additional image processing models, you'll need about 21 GB of GPU RAM which is more than a 2080 TI has. You could always try to edit their Dockerfile and re-build it to remove the other models.

For the second half of this article, we’ll use meadowdata/meadowrun-dallemini-demo which contains a notebook for running multiple models as sequential batch jobs to generate images using Meadowrun. The combination of models is inspired by jina-ai/dalle-flow.
