Stability AI unveils ‘Stable Audio’ model for controllable audio generation

Stability AI has introduced "Stable Audio," a latent diffusion model designed to revolutionise audio generation.

This breakthrough promises to be another leap forward for generative AI and combines text metadata, audio duration, and start time conditioning to offer unprecedented control over the content and length of generated audio—even enabling the creation of complete songs.

Audio diffusion models traditionally faced a significant limitation in generating audio of...

Getty is suing Stable Diffusion’s creator for copyright infringement

Stock image service Getty Images is suing Stable Diffusion creator Stability AI over alleged copyright infringement.

Stable Diffusion is one of the most popular text-to-image tools. Unlike many of its rivals, the generative AI model can run on a local computer.

Apple is a supporter of the Stable Diffusion project and recently optimised its performance on M-powered Macs. Last month, AI News reported that M2 Macs can now generate images using Stable Diffusion in under 18...

Stable Diffusion text-to-image generator is now publicly available

Text-to-image generator Stable Diffusion is now available for anyone to put to the test.

Stable Diffusion is developed by Stability AI and was initially released for researchers earlier this month. The image generator claims to deliver a breakthrough in speed and quality that can run on consumer GPUs.

The model is based on the latent diffused model created by CompVis and Runway but enhanced with insights from conditional diffusion models by Stable Diffusion’s lead...
