Automated Image Generation ... All of sudden, Russia comes in and releases a public model that at a biased glance looks like somebody just threw a goldmine at it. The encouraged way to use it is to visit a site in russian with javascript and captchas: https://huggingface.co/sberbank-ai/rudalle-Malevich
""" Training the ruDALL-E neural networks on the Christofari cluster has become the largest calculation task in Russia: - ruDALL-E Kandinsky (XXL) was trained for 37 days on the 512 GPU TESLA V100, and then also for 11 more days on the 128 GPU TESLA V100, for a total of 20,352 GPU-days; - ruDALL-E Malevich (XL) was trained for 8 days on the 128 GPU TESLA V100, and then also for 15 more days on the 192 GPU TESLA V100, for a total of 3,904 GPU-days. Accordingly, training for both models totalled 24,256 GPU-days. """ you can see why complex models are the domain of big business, government, and research institutions... lots of compute required! best regards,
