Stability AI's newest model for image generation is Stable Cascade promises to be faster and more powerful than its industry-leading predecessor, Stable Diffusion, which is the basis of many other text-to-image generation AI tools.
Breaking the requests into smaller bits compresses the request to require less memory (and fewer hours of training on those hard-to-find GPUs) and run faster. while performing better "in both prompt alignment and aesthetic quality." It took about 10 seconds to create an image compared to 22 seconds for the SDXL model used currently.
Stability AI helped popularize the stable diffusion method and has also been the subject of several lawsuits alleging Stable Diffusion trained on copyrighted data without permission from rights holders - a UK lawsuit by Getty Images against Stability AI is scheduled to go to trial in December. It began offering commercial licenses through a subscription in December, which the company said was necessary to help fund its research.
