How to train your own AI image models without breaking the bank

Learn from Principal Systems Designer at GitHub, Maxime De Greve, about the techniques and easy-to-use tools that I've used to train my own avatar AI model without requiring expensive hardware. Through an easy-to-follow walkthrough, the talk aims to empower attendees to leverage AI and train models with their own objects, faces, or styles.

We are never going to replace the work of our illustrators or augment it away with AI. There really is no substitute for the creative problem solving and human touch that goes into a bespoke illustration. However, we are interested in how AI might quickly test and validate ideas as a brainstorming partner and how it could act as another tool to help expand the talents of our human artists.

You didn't mention how you uploaded the images for training the model, lets say I want to train the model on my pet, I thought that was the whole point of this video.

[craigstewart]

Thanks. Can’t wait to try some of these techniques.

[SK-gigf]

Brillaint video... really clear and clarifies a lot of information

[CubeX-twwr]

Bro, this helps me sooo much!!❤ Thank you so much ❗

[dimitrishow_D]

Thnx i was looking for a way to train ai with my own cartoon characters and now i can work so much faster❤

[bulelanibotman]

this was an awesome demo! i am definitely doing this, thank you!

I have this error when trying to generate images in Stable Diffusion locally:
Error: Could not load the stable-diffusion model! Reason: Unknown model! No config file path specified in context.model_configs for the "stable-diffusion" model!

I read somewhere that yaml file is missing. Where can I find it?

[jords]

I think the last part "testing the model" dont work anymore...

[TechNbags]

Thanks a lot, works really well but google collab keeps disconnecting after 1 or 2 generation of image telling that you can't use it for this. Can you run the code on your local computer ? If yes, How ? Thanks

[MongeyMongey]

I have a question for those who where able to do it, is there a way to have the same gradio interface in hugging face with the same amount of options and sliders etc., when I uploaded my model it is just a simple text input with no sliders or any way to change the batch size, width, etc.

[eyalron]

Awesome video! one thing I haven't figured out: at what point and how do you feed you prepared images to the training / fine-tuning session?

[KiraBue]

Anyone have an idea why mine is running very slow or stops at a certain point while running the cell after cell?

[PaulFishwick]

Where do you put your images ? I didn’t see in the Colab notebook.

[askhataubakirov]

how can I use this code locally? To connect to my local paths with files, not google drive? Experiencing disconnections that don't let me finish execution of code blocks

[akshayrdts]

Any videos on how to train text to video model ? Any help is appreciated. Thank you !

I want to create a model for text to image for fighting poses.
Is there a way to rent space in the cloud to train a model?

[nvftmfg]

hi I am facing this issue: from pyngrok import ngrok, conf, kindly let me know how to solve it

[crisicleop]

i didnt got it how to use this google colab thing, in end saud "something went wrong" and i have no idea why...i tried all you showed and said in the video, but for someone who has no idea bout all this, its not detailed enought :(

[parcescumihai]

After a few minutes of playing with my models I always get a "Connection errored out." message in the test web page. Is this because I am not paying for google colab or some other thing I am missing ?
