Diffusion model

How it is used

The main technology behind most text-to-image generators. Engineers talk about sampling steps, guidance scale, image-to-image editing and inpainting. Generation is slower than with single-pass models because it takes many steps.

Example sentences

1. The marketing team uses a diffusion model to show our products in different settings.

2. Cutting the sampling steps from 50 to 20 made the diffusion model much faster with little loss in quality.
