Here's a brutal fact: platforms like Midjourney, Leonardo, even imgnAI - we're ALL behind high-end Home PC setups for generating.

Desktop tools like ComfyUI outshine ALL web-based generation platforms.

Until now.

Eyes peeled. This is going to be a big one. $IMGN.

This is a big one.

Desktop tools for creating gen AI art or videos are lightyears ahead of websites, but not many people have an RTX4090 or 5090, so they don't tend to get used often.

We've been working to bring the power of desktop tooling to imgnAI's web app for a long time now.

Almost ready for release.

I mean, I've a 3090 and I make it work.

But it means needing to quantize some models, and accepting that you'll be waiting longer for gens than would be delivered by an online platform.

Anything below 24gb VRAM and you'll need to quantize much much more.

is there an in between setup for desktop that’s suitable without going all the way up to a rtx4090

@imgn invested a couple of hundred thousand dollars into GPUs :)

And ofc, it's backed up by cloud-based GPUs when load demands it!

I've always wondered where the compute power comes from for these things
