open genmoji

Introduction

Open Genmoji is an open-source attempt to recreate Apple's Genmoji feature, enabling text-to-image generation using open technology. Unlike Apple's feature, Open Genmoji can be used across various platforms and devices.

Architecture

The model uses a base model from Black Forest Labs, specifically black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev, and employs techniques like LoRA and diffusers to enhance image generation capabilities. The system utilizes a "template:diffusion-lora" framework for efficient processing.

Training

The model is trained to generate images from textual prompts using diffusers and LoRA. It supports a variety of prompts, such as "fireplace," "flying pig with white wings," and "teddy bear in space suit," among others. These prompts are enhanced using Open Genmoji's Prompt Assist for improved results.

Guide: Running Locally

1. Clone the Repository: Clone the Open Genmoji repository from GitHub.
2. Install Dependencies: Ensure all required libraries, such as diffusers and LoRA, are installed.
3. Download Model Weights: Access and download the necessary model weights in Safetensors format from the Files & Versions tab of the model’s Hugging Face page.
4. Run the Model: Execute the model script with your desired prompts, using emoji to trigger image generation.

Suggested Cloud GPUs

For optimal performance, consider using cloud GPU resources such as AWS EC2 GPU instances, Google Cloud GPUs, or Azure N-Series VMs.
