Stable Diffusion is an advanced text-to-image generation model that uses deep learning to create highly detailed, realistic images from written prompts. Developed by Stability AI, it’s based on a diffusion process that gradually transforms random noise into coherent visuals guided by a neural network trained on massive datasets. Unlike earlier models, Stable Diffusion runs efficiently on consumer-grade GPUs, allowing artists, developers, and hobbyists to generate and customize images locally. Its open-source nature has made it a foundation for countless creative tools, from art generation apps to AI-powered design workflows.
