imagen-pytorch VS DALLE2-pytorch

If google doesnt, someone like lucidrains probably would implement it, just like he did for imagen and muse.

lucidrains/imagen-pytorch: Implementation of Imagen, Google's Text-to-Image Neural Network, in Pytorch (github.com)

Hi Can someone guide me a little, as to how i can use LAION dataset to train my imagen model? like how i can download the data, and in which format it should be fed to https://github.com/lucidrains/imagen-pytorch code?

If we were to put money into training something, I'd hope we use a better model, like Imagen.

I've been messing around with this open-source implementation. You can get a pretty good idea of the model size by just copying the parameters from the paper.

I'm waiting on this implementation/training of imagen: https://github.com/lucidrains/imagen-pytorch

I'm honestly surprised that they trained a StyleGAN. Recently, the Imagen architecture has been show to be both easier in structure, easier to train, and even faster to produce good results. Combined with the "Elucidating" paper by NVIDIA's Tero Karras you can train a 256px Imagen to tolerable quality within an hour on a RTX 3090.

Here's a PyTorch implementation by the LAION people:

And here's 2 images I sampled after training it for some hours, like 2 hours base model + 4 hours upscaler:

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.
