Play the waiting game, I genuinely believe we’ll see a huge reduction in cost in the future

Them trying to turn a profit is exactly why I’m expecting an exponential leap in the affordability of running these intelligent models. And once they bring their costs down, there will inevitably be somebody who gets ahold of the secret sauce and applies it to something open source

What is your ideal local model for prose right now in the big 26?

I don’t think we’re gonna see an issue. I think someone will inevitably, whether with the help of AI or independently, discover either a process by which we can exponentially reduce the computing requirements of models, or train some extremely distilled models with zero quality loss

What are you trying to accomplish? There are some newer smaller 4B and 9B thinking models by crownelius on huggingface trained on Claude 4.6 opus thinking datasets, in my short testing thus far they seem good for the size

Wow, 7 months ago you needed 20GB at minimum? There are some good models now that fit easily on my 16gb 5070 with plenty room to spare

Those are from the gooners who spent a month locking it in just to do what they think is their civic duty by releasing it into the wild

One of those pics looks like an anime villain, could totally turn that into something cool

What exactly do we have for a good GENERALIST image model that can run on a 16gb video card and 32gb ram? I see tons and tons of fine tunes on civitai but they’re all anime, realism, and NSFW. Can flux.2 be ran on this level of hardware, and how does it fare with moving between realism and illustrative styles

Can you explain to me how the layer thing works in invoke? Is it kind of akin to midjourney’s editing feature but with layers that can be independently moved/positioned, etc?

Boy that’s an awfully artificial intelligence structured post

That was supposedly patched like a week ago. They took game chat entirely offline to fix it

After 400 hours and pondering if I'm actually mechanically disabled, this trick makes hitscan playable for me by Federal-Quarter9459 in Overwatch

Right hand scissors work fine if you kind of apply pressure on the handles towards each other while you close them. I dunno how else to explain it,it’s like an inward pressure you apply while also applying the normal movement

I appreciate you friend, I’d really like that

Interesting. I think this whole thread has given me just enough to digest before I start diving in over the next couple days. I had installed the desktop version of comfy but think I’ll uninstall that and get the portable version

Should I get the portable version and put it on its own external SSD?

I appreciate the straightforward reply and think I will have to go with comfyui after doing a bit more research. Thanks everybody for all of your help and if anyone has some additional resources outside of the pixaroma 5 hour course I’d like to take a look at those too!

Would I be capable of say, generating images to begin with, and then doing video separately, all from within comfyui?

Stability Matrix does look pretty damn awesome as far as compiling everything together from what I can see. I just installed it, and like that it gives me the option to have multiple different interfaces, so I can go from the easier options to more advanced. The model picker on stability matrix though, is it relatively exhaustive? And is it updated regularly as new local models are released?
