The release of Stable Diffusion 2 has been met with mixed reactions from the community. Some are excited to see new features and updates, while others are concerned about the potential for abuse. Stable Diffusion 2 is a major update to the Stablecoin protocol, designed to make it more resistant to volatility and manipulation. The update includes a new algorithm called “Stable Diffusion”, which aims to create a more stable cryptocurrency by spreading out transactions over time. Some users believe that this new algorithm will make Stablecoin more stable and reliable, while others are concerned about the potential for abuse. They worry that large holders of Stablecoins will be able to manipulate the price of the currency by spreading out their transactions over time. While many people are excited about the potential benefits of Stable Diffusion 2, there is still some concern surrounding its potential for abuse. We will have to wait and see how this update affects the stability and value of Stablecoins in the future. ..
AI art is 2022’s hottest trend, and it’s all thanks to models like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion. Using those, you’re able to generate eerily realistic AI-fueled images. Stable Diffusion 2 has been officially released, bringing several improvements — and apparently being nerfed in other aspects.
Stable Diffusion 2’s biggest improvements have been neatly summarized by Stability AI, but basically, you can expect more accurate text prompts and more realistic images. The text-to-image models are trained with a new text encoder (OpenCLIP) and they’re able to output 512×512 and 768×768 images.
Other models are also improving a lot, including the upscaler, which can now produce much more accurate images, and the depth-to-image model, which can generate new images using both text and an existing image. There’s also an inpainting model that can swap out parts of an image to generate a brand new image.
However, the new update does have some drawbacks. Users have complained that the new version of Stable Diffusion makes it harder to generate NSFW content as well as art that imitates an actual artist’s style, leading some to claim the new version has been “nerfed.” Given AI art’s heavy criticism for its capabilities to produce real-looking fake images, it wouldn’t be surprising if the model deliberately strays away from producing images that could cause trouble.
