A week ago I mentioned that we had begun a collaboration with LAION to provide them with ratings on images. The amount of ratings we have received since then has blown away all our expectations! In just a week, you’ve all rated close to 130.000 individual images! As

About a week ago I deployed image interrogation to the stable horde, allowing low-powered GPUs and high-powered CPUs to also be able to become productive contributors on the horde and generate kudos for their owners. A few days ago, the extension I talked about was finally released once more, relying

last week I wrote how we started creating a new dataset of stable horde images to provide to LAION. Today I am proud to announce that we have further deepened our collaboration by setting up a mechanism which will allow the Stable Horde community to contribute dataset aesthetic ratings for

For a while now I’ve been discussing with LAION on a way to use the power of the horde to help them in some fashion. After coordination with hlky from the Sygil.dev crew, I decided to provide an opt-in mechanism for people to store their text2img stable diffusion

Another great update has landed now that the AI Horde Worker is in its own repository, a Web UI built with Gradio! All kudos to ResidentChief who has been doing amazing work for the horde lately! The new WebUI is completely optional and it can run alongside either the Stable

The Nataili ML backend powering the workers of the Stable Horde has for a while now supported models which can perform image interrogation (AKA img2text) operations. For example captioning images or verifying whether they are displaying NSFW content or not. For almost as long, I’ve wanted to allow the

For the past 2 weeks I’ve been trying to build the new feature of the horde which will allow even people with a low powered GPU, or just CPU to join the horde and provide a service to gather kudos. It is called “Interrogation” as it will “interrogate” source

A very cool person has developed a FOSS mobile app! This works both on Android and iOS. It is not quite as feature complete as the other stable horde web clients like Artbot and Stable UI (which also work on phones perfectly well), but I’m sure it will get

A new article has been published in PCWorld.com about the Stable Horde! Overall a very well researched article. I can’t find any issues with it. Personally I would liken the AI Horde technology as a mix between BitTorrent and Folding@Home, but the former has some negative connotations

Through the great work of @ResidentChiefNZ The Stable Horde now supports depth2img, which is a new method of doing img2img which better understands the source image you provide and the results are downright amazing. This article I think explains it better than I could. See below the transformation of one

Stable Horde has generated ~180 Terapixelsteps of images. Assuming each image is 512x512x30 that is like 22 million images (higher resolutions have an exponential difficulty). Using the current cost of http://dreamstudio.ai, the Stable Horde has generated for free a value of close to $45000! Using the old http:

I haven’t been able to improve the Stable Horde a lot lately. I was planning to do a lot of work during the week leading to Christmas, but unfortunately the universe had another idea and not only infected me with the nastiest cold I’ve had for decades, but
