What Hacker News says

We made a small web app for SDXL Lightning, running your own Python code on GPUs. It generates images in real time. We know there was a fal.ai post yesterday, and that garnered a lot of interest. We also made this quick demo yesterday but didn't end up sharing it then. So after seeing this, we thought it would be interesting to mention as an alternative tool for people who like deploying their own code and custom models rather than using prebuilt APIs. :) As mentioned in title, the backend code is open-source too. It's 80 lines of Python running on serverless functions, and you can deploy it yourself, or customize it to any model you choose: https://github.com/modal-labs/modal-examples/blob/main/06_gp...
In Show HN: Deploy your own real-time SDXL Lightning API

Show HN: Stable Diffusion Pokémon Cards

This is a toy full-stack ML app. It takes your text prompt as input and uses three models to produce four sample Pokémon card images: 1. StableDiffusion fine-tuned on Pokemon images 2. a basic RNN for Pokémon name generation 3. a basic OpenCV background-removal model. The results can be occassionally excellent. Some recent good prompts from users are: - automobile with wings - water pokemon with two heads and amphibian legs - jeff bezos - phil collins Other good previous prompts are provided as auto-complete options. My favorite prompt at the moment is 'Willy Wonka Cat' because the model nails the combination of Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka outfit and a typical feline Pokémon form. There's really no interesting technical innovation in this demo. It's just a hopefully interesting combination of stuff that already exists. It's become so easy t
