13 sourcesShow HN: Launch StableStudio local inference in one commmand
Happy to announce integration between imaginAIry and StableStudio. This is the easiest way to try out StableStudio with local image generation.
A local instance can be launched simply with
`pip install imaginairy --upgrade && aimg server`
As a reminder StableStudio is the new open-source version of DreamStudio from stability.ai. https://github.com/Stability-AI/StableStudio
6 points · Open discussionStable Diffusion works fine on a CPU - on an AMD Ryzen 5700, approx 90s per image (and I believe comparable or faster on my old i7-6700). If you want to kick off a batch in the background while you work on something else, that's plenty fast. (I use: https://github.com/brycedrennan/imaginAIry).
In I used Stable Diffusion and Dreambooth to create an art portrait of my dogWell, this already uses this default negative prompt https://github.com/brycedrennan/imaginAIry/blob/master/imagi... so it may fix the hands automatically.

This works suprisingly well. Just give it instructions like "make it winter" or "remove the cars" and the photo is altered.
Here are some examples of transformations it can make:

I integrated this new InstructPix2Pix model into imaginAIry (python library) so it's easy to use for python developers.
