Just to be clear right off the bat, I DESPISE this change.

Pros:

  1. Generated images can be very realistic and of high quality.
  2. New image size is available.

Cons:

  1. Generates different people with different facial features every time, there's no consistency, no matter how many different prompts or entire sentences were provided.
  2. Even after trying to avoid weird, deformed images one'll get a few straight-up UGLY AS SIN or absurd images in between a number of generations. I swear I'd never get anything even close to being "ugly" with the previous model, unless I prompted something like 'Cursed photo'.
  3. The model can't draw any resemblance to celeb faces anymore, even if one tries, it generates a random face.
  4. The amount of time it takes to generate now is around 3x longer, sometimes it just fails and retries.

Lastly, the previous model, which had been in use for over a year, was replaced overnight, like literally. All the prompts that everyone had created over so long and with care, suddenly became meaningless. I had to create an account just to check if it's only my pain that I've to bear.

  1. There is consistency if you use the same seed to generate images. I frequently save the seeds so I can create several variations of the same picture. In this example, I have the same woman being generated, sometimes with different glasses or minor variations:

Seeds

  1. Haven't had this issue. I've had it far more with the old model than this one. Especially messed up faces when the subject was slightly distant.
  2. Some people have posted some celebrities on reddit, like Taylor Swift. But yes, far more people found many celebrities that didn't work.
  3. This one I agree. Seems at least better today, not sure if something was changed at all.

I wasn't talking about anime or furry faces bruh

Me neither. What are you on about?

I gave you proof the seed system preserves details of the image. It is not tied to the style of the image.

It's a stretched solution and does not count as a positive side of this model either. Actually, you'd know the issue in the first place what I meant by not creating 'consistent faces' if you had been working with realistic faces for a year or so, which I doubt

"Stretched solution"? What do you even mean? It is a feature. The old model had a seed system as well, was that a "stretched solution" there too?

And by the way, I was still able to generate similar faces even without using a seed:

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.
