Automatic 1111, but as a Python Package
I built an open souce, lightweight, fast Python library to run all of Automatic 1111. Compared to the API from Automatic 1111, the SDK is also much more lightweight than running all of stable diffusion webui just to use its API on localhost and takes up considerably less VRAM. Additionally, the API doesn't support upscaling, inpainting, outpainting, which we support right now. It also does not support extensions like controlnet, dreambooth that we plan to add. Compared to Huggingface diffusers, we are 2x faster and detail the many advantages we have over them here:…
In plain words
Automatic 1111 as a Python Package is an open-source library for running Stable Diffusion image generation tasks in Python. It offers a lightweight alternative to the full Automatic 1111 web UI, using less memory while supporting features like upscaling, inpainting, and outpainting that the official API lacks. The library claims twice the speed of Hugging Face Diffusers and plans to add extensions like ControlNet and DreamBooth.

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
