The invoke-ai team is excited to be able to share the release of InvokeAI 2.0 - A Stable Diffusion Toolkit, a project that aims to provide enthusiasts and professionals both a suite of robust image creation tools. Optimized for efficiency, InvokeAI needs only ~3.5GB of VRAM to generate a 512x768 image (and less for smaller images), and is compatible with Windows/Linux/Mac (M1 & M2).
InvokeAI was one of the earliest forks of the core CompVis repo (formerly lstein/stable-diffusion), and recently evolved into a full-fledged community driven and open source stable diffusion toolkit named InvokeAI. Version 2.0.0 of the tool introduces an entirely new WebUI Front-end with a Desktop mode, and an optimized back-end server that can be interacted with via CLI or extended with your own fork.
Release 2.0.2 updates three Python dependencies that were recently reported to have critical security holes, and enhances documentation. Otherwise, the feature set is identical to 2.0.1.
This version of the app improves in-app workflows leveraging GFPGAN and Codeformer for face restoration, and RealESRGAN upscaling - Additionally, the CLI also supports a large variety of features:
- Inpainting
- Outpainting
- Negative Prompts (prompt unconditioning)
- Fast online model switching
- Textual Inversion
- Improved Quality for Hi-Resolution Images (Embiggen, Hi-res Fixes, etc.)
- And more...
Future updates planned included UI driven outpainting/inpainting, robust Cross Attention support, and an advanced node workflow for automating and sharing your workflows with the community.
