We're running out of places for techbros to put AI. They'll be putting AI in our pancakes next.

I wish they’d put AI in me. I can sleep and turn on Auto Pilot mode while at work.

The most dangerous game of all.

Hold your horses there, Adam Sandler. I know how this goes.

A simple camera module feeds images to the DreamGenerator’s Raspberry Pi computer, which runs an instance of Stable Diffusion and ControlNet to create AI art based on said image.

The device doesn’t look large enough to house a regular Pi. Is he using a Pi Zero? If so incredibly impressive.

From the article:

AI generative tools usually require an immense amount of GPU and computing power – well beyond the capabilities of a Raspberry Pi, which leads one to believe that the AI generation happens over the cloud.

So probably the smallest piece of hardware that can establish a network connection.

Tbf, Stable Diffusion can actually run on some pretty low-spec hardware these days. That said, it wouldn't surprise me if it was indeed run on cloud hardware, especially given the creator's resume.

Edit: Also, to refer to the previous comment, not happening on a Pi Zero. Just to head off that comment, lol.

I forgot about Snapchat. It's nice to not care about mainstream social media.

Less cool than the one that has no lens

Yet another forgettable buzzwording company desperately trying to keep itself relevant with no regards for ethics and morals

I love capitalism
