stable-diffusion-webui VS safetensors

* LLaVA model: I'll add more documentation. You are right Llava could not generate images. For image generation I don't have immediate plans, but checkout these projects for local image generation.

I would love to be able to have a native stable diffusion experience, my rx 580 takes 30s to generate a single image. But it does work after following https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki...

I got this up and running on my windows machine in short order and I don't even know what stable diffusion is.

But again, it would be nice to have first class support to locally participate in the fun.

In Auto1111, that just uses Image.blend. :)

I used SDXL in automatic1111 webui for both images. Now that I think about it, the procedure I described was how I made this one, but the one that looks like an illustration was done in two steps. I used the canny ControlNet as I said for the outer part of the logo to preserve the shape of the fonts, but I had to turn it off for the boot to give SDXL leeway to add detail and make it look more like a boot.

That said, please do learn coding and don't get discouraged when somebody says to learn PyTorch or recommends using a Jupiter notebook with no further information on how to translate the skill into images. I would highly recommend some short term goals. Get your feet wet by taking apart the UIs. The comfy API documentation is here and the A1111 API documentation is here. There is a difference in completeness, welcome to programming. Writing nodes or plugins is also a good way to jump into this world. Custom wildcard logic might be very attractive to you if you aren't the type that want to deal with a nested file structure to simulate logic.

FYI the file format, safetensors, was proposed, developed and maintained by HF, and involved people from groups such as Eleuther and Stability for external security audits.

Thank you for note on this. I had not heard there were already trojan horse malware being slipped into tensor files as python scripts. Apparently torch pickle uses eval on the tensor file with no filter.

Heard surprisingly little commentary on this topic. The full explanation of how Safetensors are "Safe" can be found from the developer at: https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors/discussions/111

Here the developer goes into some detail about what kinds of protections .safetensor files have : https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors/discussions/111

Use the safetensors format, which allows safe persistence and loading of models for common libraries - TensorFlow, PyTorch, JAX, etc. We went through external audits in the last few months (blog post). The current direction will be to have this as the default format.

I've been diving in lately and while it's not efficient, the only way to do manage is to create a new conda/mamba environment, or a custom Docker image for all the conflicting packages.

For safety and speed, you should prefer the safetensor format: https://huggingface.co/docs/safetensors/speed

If you know what you are doing you can do your own conversions: https://github.com/huggingface/safetensors or for safety, https://huggingface.co/spaces/diffusers/convert
