stable-diffusion VS textual_inversion

Yes, you can install it with Python! https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion works with macOS, and you can control all the common parameter via their WebUI or CLI :)

I'm using lstein fork ("dream") and when I create an image from the terminal, it also writes back to the terminal like this:

> Whenever I ask for something like ‘seamless tiling xxxxxx’ it kinda sorta gets the idea, but the resulting texture doesn’t quite tile right.

Getting seamless tiling requires more than just have "seamless tiling" in the prompt. It also depends on if the fork you're using has that feature at all.

https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion has the feature, but you need to pass it outside the prompt. So if you use the `dream.py` prompt cli, you can pass it `"Hats on the ground" --seamless` and it should be perfectly tilable.

Stable Diffusion Dream Script: This is the original site/script for supporting macOS. I found this soon after Stable Diffusion was publicly released and it was the site which inspired me to try out using Stable Diffusion on a mac. They have a web-based UI (as well as command-line scripts) and a lot of documentation on how to get things working.

I’m pretty sure it works for M2 as well - basically the newer ARM-based Macs. The instructions to get it working are detailed! https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion

Checking out https://github.com/rinongal/textual_inversion, which has some possibly informative examples and scripts.

I think currently you will need about 20GB VRam..., options are: 1. https://github.com/rinongal/textual_inversion - localy

Rinongal and nicolai256 versions, the latter of which is also the one explained in Nerdy Rodent's youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsDykBTjo20, work but they also have an issue of lacking editability in comparison to one made by huggingface's collab which is followed up in a very long issue on Rinongal's Github. You can add accumulate_grad_batches: 4 to the end of the finetune files like shown in Nerdy Rodent's video at this time stamp to try to alleviate this issue, but the quality isn't as good as one made in the online collab.

That may mostly solve that but it’s too early right now: https://github.com/rinongal/textual_inversion

For fun I tried to make an entire animated music video but it took over one week of processing and basically fell apart coherently by 30 seconds so just did one third:

The huggingface models don't work with the local stable diffusion, only the models trained locally with this repo https://github.com/rinongal/textual_inversion can be installed, at least for now.
