Episode notes
AI for Farmers
- Indian farmers use AI image generation for product labels.
- This allows them to market to richer countries, increasing their income.
Transformer Model
- AI image generation tools like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion are based on the Transformer model.
- This model, introduced in 2017, predicts the next element in a sequence, like a sentence or image.
Stable Diffusion Parts
- Stable Diffusion has three parts: an encoder, a denoising algorithm, and a text encoder.
- The encoder compresses images, the denoiser removes noise, and the text encoder converts words into data.
