Experience SDXL (BETA)

Read DescriptionBETA version of Experience for SDXL."Now with 16x the space booty" - Todd HowardQuestions/Feedback/Updates?Visit my thread on the Unstable Diffusion DiscordAboutThis is not the full release of Experience for SDXL. The full model is still in training with a projected completion sometime in May.The BETA version is one of the latest Epochs of the fine-tune — merged lightly with an Anime model to fill in areas the early epoch lacks.Differences between Experience SDXL (BETA) and Experience SD1.5Not Photorealistic: This is the primary difference between the two architectures and the reason the full release still being a ways off. The SDXL (BETA) version is more akin to the early releases of Experience for SD1.5. Where 'photorealism' looks more like a real-time render than photography/cinematography. You will have a hard time getting the same level of skin detail and texturing with the SDXL (BETA) model. The full SDXL model will capable of photography and cinematography.Less is More: With the SDXL (BETA) version, you do not need to write a short novel when prompting the model. Try including simple adjectives to modify tokens. Such as 'A breathtaking landscape', 'An otherworldly monolithic structure.'Use Your Preferred Prompt Style: One of the big advantages with SDXL is it's beefy text-encoders which allow for natural language prompting. All captions for base model were created by my MLLM captioning system (more info on my discord thread) in a natural language format. However, you can also use the comma-delimited keyword method of SD1.5 and Booru tags. Or, simply describe the image you want like you would to a person.Prompt Adherence: The SDXL (BETA) version has a higher probability of returning an image that aligns more closely to what you prompted.Styles and Mediums: Aside from the aforementioned issue with photography and cinematography — overall the SDXL (BETA) version is capable of generating images in more styles and mediums than the SD1.5 version. The best practice is to include the medium or style at the start of the prompt. For prompts with both medium and style tokens, include the medium at the beginning of the prompt and the style token towards the end.Higher Resolution: By Nature of being SDXL.UsageNote: Requires VAE, found here.
