4d ago · 5 min read · Six months ago, generating a single 4-panel comic on Comicory cost me ~$0.80 in GPU time and produced something that looked AI-generated in the worst way — washed-out colors, fingers melting, the same
Join discussionApr 28 · 6 min read · SDXL Turbo is genuinely impressive for what it does — real-time or near-real-time image generation in 1-4 steps. But it has a specific set of requirements and failure modes that are different from base SDXL, and if you're bringing over your SDXL setu...

Mar 9 · 11 min read · TLDR: Diffusion models work by first learning to add noise to an image, then learning to undo that noise. At inference time you start from pure static and iteratively denoise into a meaningful image. They power DALL-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusio...

Nov 15, 2025 · 5 min read · I’ve been playing with diffusion models since their native resolution was 512×512. I’ve learned all sorts of techniques to max out the output resolution. Model improvements have gotten us a good bump with SDXL native resolution of 1024×1024 and FLUX....
