AI image generation doesn't always need the best GPUs, as these 3 smaller models show. Smaller can often mean faster too, so even higher-end owners can benefit. Lumina 2.0 is great at following prompts, TinyBreaker uses an interesting mix of Pixart with Stable Diffusion, and Animagine XL 4 is the latest anime SDXL model in the series.

YuE now has a free and open source license, switching from non-commercial over to Apache 2.0. This means you can now make AI generated music at home, for free on your own computer with as little as 6GB VRAM and generation times of only 4 minutes!
No more running out of credits on websites 😉
Writing your own lyrics and style tags isn't your only control though, as you can also upload your own vocals, instrumental or both to serve as a prompt! Plus you can get vocal or instrumental stems as output to enable even more creative options. Make some music and then sing over it yourself without needing to separate the vocals, for example.
Various options for using YuE are available, and I compare some of them here.

DeepSeek. It's a Large language model. Very large. Thankfully, there are smaller, distilled versions available to run at home for FREE :)
But how well does DeepSeek do when it comes to prompt generation for FLux.1 in ComfyUI? I guess it's time to find out!

Image to Video, Video to Video, Text to Video and Camera Controls. What more could you want from an AI video generation model? Maybe control using pose, scribble or depth videos? That's there too. How about trajectory based control? Also possible! Maybe you'd like camera control too? Is panning, zooming and rotating enough? And the license... Apache-2.0 license :)

Nvidia Cosmos has a set of "world" models designed to generate synthetic data for training... but it can do so much more than that, such as animating images and even image interpolation! Oh, and it can generate rodents too.
Run it at home, for free, on your own computer with just 12GB VRAM. ~7 minutes for a 704x704 121 frame video :)

Faster image and video generation with SDXL, Flux, LTVX and Hunyuan Video is here thanks to the power of caches. Speed up a little - or a lot! TeaCache claims a 1.4x lossless speedup, and at a push I’m e found you can just about get to 3x speedup with images.
These handy ComfyUI nodes are quick to install, and then all you need to do then is pop a cache node into your existing workflow for an instant speed boost!
I put a couple of options through their paces, with some interesting results...

Do you have multiple LoRAs and wish you could use them all for different areas? Well, the recent ComfyUI blog on Masking and Scheduling LoRA and Model weights introduces some new nodes to us making it super easy! With hooks you can now attach LoRAs to conditioning, rather than going through the typical model pipeline. New combine nodes also make it easier to work with conditioning pairs. Together they help to build simplified workflows for all sorts of regional prompting tasks :)

RF Inversion (unsampling) works well, but RF Edit gives you another tool in the toolbox for making image edits. Flux Regional Prompting lets you prompt specific regions, with PAG/SEG adding extra details and a little prompt adherence to your generations. Best of all, you get all three from the Fluxtapoz GitHub repo!
Run for free on your own computer at home, and let your imagination run wild!

The core concept of In-Context-LoRA (IC-LoRA) is to concatenate both condition and target images into a single composite image whilst using natural language to define the task - such as "put this design on a bag".
Whilst the paper and LoRAs concentrate on generating multiple panels at once, you can also inject your own images as the context too! 😃

Three new things this week with the release of two models from AliMamma along with some Rectified Flow Inversion (Unsampling from RF Inversion)!
Still using more than 8 steps and waiting minutes for your results? Slap the power of turbo in for extra fast image generation using Flux AND it works with RF inversion for amazing image edits! What are you waiting for? Not Turbo, that’s for sure 😉
Quickly and easily style any image. Turn anime images into realistic ones, or realistic images into cartoons… or 3d models, or wood, or… RF inversion is super versatile!
Nb. With recent ComfyUI updates, centre no longer centres and instead has become fit to view, but hey 🫤
