Stable Diffusion is an open-source AI model that generates images from text prompts. It's a type of text-to-image model developed by Stability AI in collaboration with researchers and developers from other organisations. It became widely known in 2022 for its ability to create highly detailed and artistic images quickly on consumer hardware.

🔍 How It Works (Simplified):

1. Text Prompt → Image: You describe an image in natural language (e.g., "a futuristic city at night, cyberpunk style") and Stable Diffusion generates a matching image.

2. Latent Diffusion: Instead of working directly with high-resolution images, the model generates in a compressed form called a “latent space” to improve performance.

3. Diffusion Process: It starts with random noise and gradually refines it into an image that matches the prompt by reversing a noise process.

💡 Key Features:

• Open-source: Can be run locally on a decent GPU (e.g., 6 GB+ VRAM).
• Customizable: Artists and developers can fine-tune the model, use different styles, or create extensions.
• Fast & Efficient: Compared to older models, it's optimised for speed and resource usage.
• Supports Inpainting and Outpainting: Fill in missing parts of images or expand them beyond their original borders.
• ControlNet & LoRA support: Enables more precise control over generated results (e.g., pose control, sketches, etc.).

🧠 Common Uses:

• Art and concept design
• Game assets
• Storyboarding and comics
• AI-generated portraits
