BONUS: Stable Diffusion for Professional Artists w/ Kent Keirsey of Invoke AI

Kent Keirsey from Invoke AI joins us to delve into the origins, development, and features of the Invoke AI frontend for Stable Diffusion. How does open source software fuel innovation? What makes Invoke AI stand out as a tool for professionals among a myriad of Stable Diffusion tools? We explore the ethical considerations of training Stable Diffusion models and get a glimpse of Kent’s vision for the future of AI. Kent also demos powerful features like Control Net within Invoke AI to take my line art and turn it into a bright and beautiful piece of AI art. PLUS, what lies ahead for Invoke and AI-powered art?
