Which Stable Diffusion to use
When we say Stable Diffusion, which Stable Diffusion are we really referring to? Here’s a list of the different Stable Diffusion tools and the differences between them:
- Stable Diffusion GitHub repo (https://github.com/CompVis/stable-diffusion): This is the original implementation of Stable Diffusion from CompVis, contributed to by many great engineers and researchers. It is a PyTorch implementation that can be used to train and generate images, text, and other creative content. The library is now less active at the time of writing in 2023. Its README page also recommends users use Diffusers from Hugging Face to use and train Diffusion models.
- Diffusers from Hugging Face: Diffusers is a library for training and using diffusion models developed by Hugging Face. It is the go-to library for state-of-the-art, pre-trained diffusion models for generating images, audio, and even the 3D structures of molecules. The library is well maintained...
