Rerunning an idea, I’m curious how image generators have improved/changed.

Feel free to break up the words in your username, and let us know if you added anything like “a logo for…” Or “an avatar for…”

Let’s run it through as many different generators as you have access to, and see what happens. You might just find your new avatar picture!

    skims bot FAQ

    Oh, dang, it even runs multiple models, and it looks like it can run Flux, which can handle fairly English-language-looking prompts.

    I gotta see this.

        Hahaha, that’s fantastic. Thanks, @db@lemmy.dbzer0.com. I can’t believe that I had been unaware of this for years.

        I’ve got local hardware myself, but this makes generation way more accessible to random users on the Threadiverse without tying them to commercial services, including users who are using a phone and can’t really run the stuff locally.

        It does look like the bot tries to block NSFW stuff, but outside of that, it looks pretty permissive of whatever, and while the style list doesn’t clearly distinguish between styles consisting of prompts for one model and different models, there are a lot of models in there that I recognize. Just append style: flux to the end of the prompt. It’s got Flux (style: flux), Pony (style: pony), Pony Realism (style: pony realism), the Nova family (style: nova anime xl, style: nova, style: nova furry pony), Stable Diffusion 3 (style: sd3), SDXL (style: sdxl), Mistoon (style: mistoon anime), just from a very quick skim. I guess AI Horde must have a list of models and the ability to just download models or something if it doesn’t already have them present on a node?

          Yes the AI Horde has a list of available models (close to 200 I think?) and we keep curating that list often. But people can also run custom models or even private ones if they ask us for it.

          If you have a good enough GPU, you can add it to the horde to let your friends seamlessly use its compute through more powerful UIs like Artbot, and support services like the @aihorde@lemmy.dbzer0.com bot you just used ;)

            Yeah, I remember reading about AI Horde a while back and thought about it, but wasn’t comfortable with having an system that fields requests from the outside world, as my GPU is on a desktop and I’m not totally sold on how well these guys have hardened the thing. If I had a dedicated compute node for doing renders, I’d probably be fine with it, as it just eats some electricity then.

              “These guys” being me :)

              There’s no way to get pwned by the horde ,as it’s pull-mode only. You don’t get arbitrary code to run. It’s perfectly safe.
