Super Easy Guide to Local AI Image Generation

This is a full guide on image generation with the help of open source available models.

We are using Pinokio, yes that Disney character with long nose!
It automates all the tasks of manual setup with a script.

Setup is pretty straightforward, install app from here and then dependencies will be auto-installed.

Quite of options on what you to want to do, this has a script which installs and setups up model automatically.

I wanted to generate some images, so I selected the first model for image generation and it ran the script while I sat back wondering what to do.
It gives a URL and just type it in the browser for a local interface.

I created an image of Emma Watson in Harry Potter.

Beautiful Output

Fans of GPU went off, I had a 4060 Mobile and took 15-20 sec to generate it. I got 1.4 iterations per second speed.
Those with not so powerful setups can expect a minute or 2 depending on number of iterations and quality. Explore for yourself about other aspects such as styles, image models and more.

Overall, Pinokio has a lot more models which deserve a try!
