  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    the included models in waifu2x-caffe have been enough for asset upscaling with some touchups
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    upscaling's super fleshed out
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    and every artstyle of anime
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    along with all the animes
    Quote Link

  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    upscaling models? like esrgan models? what for?
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    though, most of them are training upscaling models
    Quote Link
  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    i'll be very honest with you fam it sounds like you tried it for maybe a couple hours like a year ago and never looked into it further
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    I was under the impression that it took longer, judging from the complaining I hear from all these nerds
    Quote Link
  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    less if you just autotag

    let me elaborate, you can have all the control, however the time it takes to train a model on a custom dataset which has the style you want to replicate is better spent learning to draw
    it takes as little as two hours between curating the dataset, tagging and training
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    then again, none of it is truly original
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    LoRA exists and you can mix stuff
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    actually, that's not entirely true
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    you don't have any control over other models
    Quote Link
  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    uh

    guys will sit for literal hours at a keyboard and type up prompts just to get a somewhat decent result
    massive skill issue tbh

  • Nobie @ Nobie:
    I guess I can see where you're coming from but at the same time we never had anything like this EVER and it's pushing the bounds so I'm just happy that is what it is
    Quote Link
  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    Adel said:
    also it's not better since you don't have much control at all
    you have A TON of control
    Quote Link
  • Xeraser @ Xeraser:
    that's because you have to put SOME
    effort into it
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    give it another 5 years and we should have better stuff

  • Adel @ Adel:
    the good results you see make up literally 0.01% of all the generated results
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    as someone who dabbles in the stuff, it's really limited
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    also it's not better since you don't have much control at all
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    it's useful as a snapshot for getting people acquainted with the stuff
    Quote Link
  • Nobie @ Nobie:
    Image AI is better than actual artists at this point I'm convinced(At least for anime drawings)
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    the basic stuff which explains the modus operandi still stands, but some of the tools I used are definitely out of date
    Quote Link
  • Nobie @ Nobie:
    AI evolves quickly
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    I have one on AI stuff which I wrote in September but I fear it's outdated
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    I sure as shit won't reference them
    Quote Link
  • Nobie @ Nobie:
    I have a few articles too but they're all PDFs
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    thought I might compile a few here but I'd rather not if nobody else is gonna read them lol
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    I've written a few articles before which aren't currently hosted anywhere online
    Quote Link
  • Nobie @ Nobie:
    Ohhh I see it, I just glossed over that button every single time I've been on this site...
    Quote Link
  • Nobie @ Nobie:
    Yup lmao
    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    that's my answer I guess
    Quote Link
  • Nobie @ Nobie:

    Quote Link
  • Adel @ Adel:
    you can host articles on here, but does anyone even read them?

  • Nobie @ Nobie:
