Stable Diffusion is a machine learning, text-to-image model developed by StabilityAI, in collaboration with EleutherAI and LAION,[1] to generate digital images from natural language descriptions. The model can be used for other tasks too, like generating image-to-image translations guided by a text prompt.[2]

It can run on most consumer hardware equipped with a modest GPU and was hailed by PC World as "the next killer app for your PC".[3]

Stability AI, the company behind Stable Diffusion, is in talks to raise up to one billion dollars in valuation as of September 2022.[4]

License

Unlike models like DALL-E, Stable Diffusion makes its source code available.[5] Its license prohibits certain harmful use cases.[6][7] Critics have raised concerns about AI ethics, stating that the model can be used to create deepfakes[8] and also questioning the legality of generating images with a model trained on a dataset containing copyrighted content without the consent of the original artists.[9]

Training

Stable Diffusion was trained on a subset of the LAION-Aesthetics V2 dataset.[10] It was trained using 256 Nvidia A100 GPUs at a cost of $600,000.[11]
