What kind of computer do you need for AI image generation?
I'm thinking about getting more seriously into AI image generation, but I'm not sure if my current computer setup is up to the task. I've noticed some of the more complex models seem to really bog things down, and the rendering times can be painfully slow. So what kind of hardware are you all using? Is a high-end graphics card essential, or is a fast processor more important? Any advice on building or upgrading a computer specifically for AI art would be greatly appreciated!

It really depends on what you're planning to do. If you're just using cloud-based services, you might not need anything too fancy. However, if you want to run the models locally, a decent GPU is almost essential. It depends on how deeply you need to delve into the system. I am not a tech expert, but I do know you will want to avoid the really obscure and seedy sides of AI image generation, such as searching for a deepnude generator, as they can contain malware bundled into the files as they are often not secure applications or services. I would recommend exploring some benchmarks online to get a better idea of what kind of performance you can expect from different hardware components.
