Crazy fast image generation with LCM LoRA for SDXL

Stable Diffusion keeps improving at an astounding pace! This time, it’s the idea of distilling a model into a Latent Consistency Model (LCM) for very, very fast image generation with a quality trade-off. On 24 Oct 2023, the distilled Segmind Stable Diffusion 1B (SSD-1B) model was released, followed by a better implementation in the form of Latent Consistency LoRAs for SDXL and SDD-1B released on 9 Nov 2023. ...

CLIPSeg with SDXL in ComfyUI

Onward with SDXL and ComfyUI! Sometimes I want to tweak generated images by replacing selected parts that don’t look good while retaining the rest of the image that does look good. Rather than manually creating a mask, I’d like to leverage CLIPSeg to generate a masks from a text prompt. ...
