Been making AI images between my 14 inch MBP and my gaming PC. My findings:

I suspect they will add some novel image generator capability at some time. The only catch is I believe you still have to have a paid Office/Microsoft 365 subscription to get this feature. Someone has to pay for all those compute cycles.

From a story earlier,

Microsoft takes AI image generation mainstream, strolling into ethics minefield

Microsoft sidesteps AI-powered art debate, embraces image generation as a tool for creatives.

Microsoft Designer originated as part of PowerPoint, where it currently suggests design ideas as a subset of that program. But Microsoft plans to break out Designer into its own Microsoft 365 app that will be available both as a free app and as a premium app available to Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers. For now, Microsoft is limiting Designer to a free public web app, which it will use to gather feedback from public testing.

Image synthesis tools are only going to become more and more mainstream.

Thanks. Looks like another great source of images

Any more photos? New AI creations you have done?

Here's another good source for prompt inputs and parameters.

I can't post many because a lot of my creations have been yabai and well...let's just say I make what I like. 😉

But I did have some good renders yesterday

I can't go past 768x768 as the macOS renderers do not like the massive renders and really chugs through them (not like it matters as going past that size and you get some really messed up Cronenberg style images)

I'm gonna have to do a purge of the rejects this weekend as this week I made 50 gb worth of images, with probably less than a gb of them actually being good enough to warrant posting on the internet. This is why I got my Macbook Pro 1TB.

Yeah I got with the developers and found the problem: Their Mac instructions were not as user friendly, and the installation process needed Sudo privileges. I got Invoke working now and good lord it's so much better than DiffusionBee.

Any hints other than Sudo for trying Invoke?

Which do you tend to use most now Invoke or DiffusionBee?

I use Invoke just for the sole reason it's more feature complete than Diffusion and can use third party models. If you're just playing around but not seriously using AI than Diffusion's the way to go since it's user friendly, at least until Invoke's installer is completed.

I ended up trying a bunch of different AI tools and to be honest I found MidJourney to be heads and shoulders above everything else but I wouldn’t mind trying more models with Invoke if anyone has any reccommendations.
