4. Stable Diffusion XL Turbo
Stable Diffusion XL was Stability AI’s attempt to really cement itself in the rapidly expanding market of image generators made for businesses. It was supposed to be better than Stable Diffusion 2.0, the sequel to the first Stable Diffusion. It’s not fully available online, but you can generate images for free with the “Try SDXL” button on the company’s website. The code is also available if you have the capabilities and know how (or the cash to run it on one of Hugging Face’s servers) to run it for free.
Like older SD models, it’s still a little loose in the face and hands departments when you don’t wish to provide specific instructions in your prompt. That being said, some of the images are fairly interesting and they are a big step up from earlier images created with the same prompts.
