Web Stable Diffusion (via) I just ran the full Stable Diffusion image generation model entirely in my browser, and used it to generate an image of two raccoons eating pie in the woods. I had to use Google Chrome Canary since this depends on WebGPU which still isn't fully rolled out, but it worked perfectly.

mic.ai/web-stable-diffusion/ in Chrome Canary. Prompt: two racoons eatinga a pie in the woods. No negative prompt. Multi-step DPM Solver (20 steps) for the scheduler. Initializing GPU device: WebGPU - apple. A completed progress bar which says it took 38 seconds. And a quite realistic looking photograph of two racoons in the woods, one of whom is eating a pie (though on closer inspection he does have three paws, two holding the pie and one beneath it). The second raccoon only has two paws.
