The year 2022 was an amazing year for generative AI market and no one can deny in this year, release of some cool models such as Midjourney<\/a>, Stable Diffusion<\/a> and ChatGPT<\/a> made this market bigger, better and more competitive. You may also know Mann-E<\/a>, the model I have developed on top of Runway ML’s Stable Diffusion 1.5<\/a> using Dream Booth.<\/em> In this particular article, I provide you with a report for the development procedure of Mann-E 5, which will be accessible at April 14th 2023 on Mann-E Platform<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Introduction<\/h1>\n

The Intention<\/h2>\n

The main intention of the Mann-E at first place was a personal discovery of AI Art and text-to-image <\/em>models, but later I found the business\/commercial opportunities and since I also am an open-source enthusiast, the main intention changed to providing an easy and accessible open-source alternative to midjourney.<\/em><\/p>\n

Since Midjourney is only accessible through Discord, it’s expensive (compared to most of other image generation models) and there is also a huge problem for Iranian users to use the basic or standard plans, the idea of a platform for art generation.<\/p>\n

The method<\/h2>\n

For this particular version, I used self-instruct <\/em>method which was used for Stanford’s Alpaca<\/a> dataset and model. The tools used for this project were as following:<\/p>\n
