Using Flux.1 in GGUF format on macOS
city96 has published GGUF versions of the Flux1.Dev model and T5 XXL text encoder, along with custom nodes to use them in ComfyUI - thought I’d try them on my M2 Mac mini, hoping for faster inference! ...

Faster Flux.1
More Flux.1-based models! Go faster with FP8 or NF4! New LoRAs and ControlNets! There is quite a bit of interest with this model, as evidenced by the speed of community-led enhancements. ...
Wow! Flux.1 by Black Forrest Labs
While I have many posts about SDXL, I do not use Stable Diffusion 3 at all - license concerns aside, it is simply not good, and may never get better. But just a few days ago, a new, freely available, offline model that is better than SDXL was released by the team that presented Latent Diffusion and created Stable Diffusion, Flux.1 by Black Forrest Labs! ...
Fun with Llama 3 (8B) in Ollama
I saw a post on Reddit, entitled “Llama 3 rocks with taking on a personality!”. A fun experiment! I thought to replicate it, blatantly copying the puzzle presented. Llama 3, released by Meta just before the weekend, is impressive. ...
Testing new PAG and Perp-Neg nodes in ComfyUI
I know it’s bad form to start off with a disclaimer: but the truth is, I do not know what I am doing. I am just testing out two new ComfyUI nodes, PerturbedAttentionGuidance and PerpNegGuider. ...
Mistral System Message setup to improve Image Generation Prompts
In my last post, I used ComfyUI-IF_AI_tools to integrate to the brxce/stable-diffusion-prompt-generator model running in Ollama. I wonder if I could use the base Mistral 7B model to help improve my uncreative prompts instead… ...
LLM Prompt Generation with Ollama in ComfyUI
In my last post, I described running Mistral, a Large Language Model, locally using Ollama. To accompany that piece, I created a prompt and manually used AI to generate an image. Today, I’ll wire up a ComfyUI workflow to Ollama to do this seamlessly, thanks to ComfyUI-IF_AI_tools. ...
A game with Mistral 7B using Ollama
I keep posting about Stable Diffusion, but I do experiment with Large Language Models too! I do not have much to contribute in this regard, instead, here is the transcript of a game I played with the open source Mistral 7B model via Ollama. ...
Stable Video Diffusion
More and more AI generated images are shared as short video clips. So, here a quick test of Stable Video Diffusion - which was released back in November last year. Don’t know why I didn’t post this when I posted about AnimateDiff and the Hotshot Motion model around the same time. ...
TripoSR image-to-3D-object
Do you want to convert a 2D image into a 3D model auto-magically? On 5 March 2024, Stability AI and Tripo AI released TripoSR: Fast 3D Object Generation from Single Images that does exactly that! ...
