Alternatives
Products that do what I made a local wrapper for Automatic 1111 does
I made an open-source Python library for the Stable Diffusion Web UI. It's a direct alternative to Huggingface Diffusers except it has more features + runs the same scripts as A1111 so the results are replicable. Please give it a star on Github! https://github.com/saketh12/Auto1111SDK

Hi, this is a project I've been working on for about 2 months. I am definitely not a designer, so I tried to keep the GUI to minimum and really make the presentation about photos and as fluid as possible. Any feedback welcome! :)

Try it at: ssh krnl.duetbrowser.com No sign up, totally free - no download. Let me know what you think. Prior art exists (brow.sh) but I wasn't satisfied with their graphical take. I wanted the raw, old skool terminal days of the early internet - BBS, and old green phosphor library comptuers - but running the modern web, with all the bells and jingle jangle whistles (JavaScript, etc). No funding, no VC, just 100% raw terminal fun. Not sure how long the demo will last, but try it out.

I wrote this a few months ago over Winter break. It's the fastest/highest fidelity browser cloth sim I've found, but this codepen (1) is close. I'd love to hear any insights about cloth simulators / spring constraint solvers 1: https://codepen.io/dissimulate/pen/nYQrNP GitHub: https://github.com/mkhan45/clothsim

I had 14,000 photos sitting on a drive and wanted an excuse to play with local vision models and Elixir/Phoenix. I originally tried to get LLaVA to tell me if a photo was 'good' or matched my style, but quickly learned that LLMs have terrible taste. I ended up demoting the LLM to just extract metadata, and built a custom CLIP/Ridge Regression pipeline to actually learn my preferences based on how I rate things. The stack is Phoenix/Oban on the orchestrator side, and Python/FastAPI/Instructor for the AI workers. Happy to answer any questions about the architecture,…

Hi guys! I did a hackathon this weekend for leapml.dev and built out a site that lets you generate images with stable diffusion in the browser: https://aiart.fm Each image gets tagged and stored in a database so you can go back and look at what prompts, seeds, step, models people have used to make nice images. There is also a rudeimntary voting system and the homepage is sorted by highest rated. But the most exciting bit is I added my own custom fine tuned model to it last night that I'm calling "Psychedelia". All of the top images one the homepage are using this model. It seems to…

Hey HN, when building ML systems for industrial AI, we have learned that data inspection is critical during the ML development process. We are also big fans of the Hugging Face ecosystem. That is why we built an integration to our data exploration tool Spotlight that allows you to interactively explore Hugging Face datasets with one line of code. Spotlight lets you leverage model results such as predictions and embeddings to gain a deeper understanding in data segments and model failure modes. Currently, many many NLP, CV, Audio and multimodal datasets are supported both locally and on the…

Hey everyone, my friend and I created a GitHub Wrapped video for developers to showcase their activity on the platform in a more fun way. The implementation is open-source (https://github.com/rendleyhq/github-wrapped-2024) if you're interested in how it was built. To get a bit geeky, we used masks, keyframe animations, luma key shaders to remove the background from the confetti video, and some other techniques. Also, everything is rendered directly in the browser!! I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the rendering performance, especially if you're running this on your…

Hi guys, For a few months now I've been working on a web GUI to build, visualise, train and share deep neural models. It's currently reaching a state where opening it for Beta release make sense. Currently the tool support: - Fully connected and Convolutional architecture - Cloud and local, saving / loading of models - Edit / delete layers - Visualise Convolutional layers filters - Freeze / Unfreeze layers - More datasets: Fashion MNIST, QuickDraw(10 and 30) The editor can be found here: https://aifiddle.io. Your feedback, ideas, suggestions are greatly useful, so…

https://github.com/PlumeCat/tack Hi HN! Tack is a scripting language I've been working on sporadically for the past year or so, and intensely for the past few weeks. It originated out of a desire for something that was like Lua, but with a more familiar syntax, and without some of the other surprises in Lua such as the 1-indexed tables. It's also been a great learning project, and a very satisfying challenge! While the current version is early beta at best, I hope to continue working on it and maybe see some adoption. Despite the relative lack of optimization, I'm very…

It's a chrome extension that automatically loads the specs from the Hugging Face model card into the calculation. > To test it, install the extension (no registration/key needed) and navigate to a HF model page. Then click the "VRAM" icon on the top right to open the sidepanel. You can specify quantization, batch size, sequence length, etc. Works for inference & fine-tuning. If it does not fit on the specified GPUs, it gives you an advise on how to still run it (e.g. lowering precision). It is inspired at my work, where we were constantly exporting metrics from HF to estimate required…

It's very early days for the project, but I wanted to share it to see if there is interest. It is the final piece of the FastAPI server-side rendering stack I started building with FastHX and htmy (the two dependencies of this project besides FastAPI). Think of it as a more powerful and convenient alternative to tools like FastHTML, powered by FastAPI (without any modifications). I hope you'll like it.

Hi there, looking for feedback on my new project "Featherless.AI" The idea is to allow users to run all the models on hugging face instantly. Via the OpenAI API compatible endpoint. Why? Because its a real chore to download models and spin up GPUs, especially if you want to test multiple models. Not to mention GPUs cost multiple dollars an hour to rent. And if we want more people to use open source AI, we got to make it easier for them to try and play with all of them. So what if instead of spinning up dedicated GPUs per model (which is what every provider is doing) We can startup a LLM…

Hey HN, 4 days ago I went through the impressive demo of IDM-VTON on HuggingFace. I found there was no ComfyUI adaptation of this new model. So I’ve implemented custom nodes in ComfyUI that allow anyone to perform virtual try-ons using IDM-VTON. Simply load an image of a model and a garment, and the node will generate a new image with the garment worn by the model. I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Cheers, Tom

Just a fun lil experiment with headless chrome + nano banana to take a screenshot of your GH contribution graph and then apply a 2-pass AI image filter to create a cool billboard featuring your GH graph. 100% open source & free :) tho I would appreciate any sponsors on github if you like it since API costs can add up.

Hey HN! I wanted to practice "vibe coding" and see how far and fast I can go by only prompting, without actual coding. I decided to make a simple CLI app that scrapes web docs into a single md file (I was annoyed that LLM keeps writing Tailwind 3 code for a Tailwind 4 project). In just a couple of hours, the CLI app was ready! Then iterated on arguments for another couple of hours. Result: https://github.com/vladstudio/web2llm Then I decided to go further and "productize" the CLI by making a web app for it. Another half-day, and the web app is ready!…

hey there hn! thought you would appreciate my brand new file format - i've spent over 40 minutes creating this standard. it's really hard trying to get your ideas shown to standards boards etc but i think with the great community here we can help get bioif support into all major browsers :) the spec is available over at the website, as is a reference implementation. it already has higher usage than jpeg-xl. - best

Hey Hacker News! I'm Alex, I'm 19 and I work at Hack Club! The last two weeks i've been messing around with pdfs. I made slop pdf (https://slop.alexvd.dev -- notice the similar website design), a pdf that generates random ai slop stories when you open it, and I was showing that off to one of my friends who suggested I get the LLM to actually work inside the pdf, without an API call to a relay. I laughed at the idea, but then we did some research together, and we managed to find EvanZhouDev's llm.pdf (https://github.com/EvanZhouDev/llm.pdf). Because it existed, I…
