Eliso’s Generative Art Guides

I am experimenting with various different AIs, specifically for image generation. I created this website as a tool to help other people learn how to use those AIs too. I am also in the process of creating an AI art generator website, that anyone can go to, log in, enter the prompt, and in just a few minutes, get an image created with AI. If you are interested in helping with this project, please send me an email (eliso@botbox.dev). If you have any questions or suggestions about this, post a comment on this page. If you are trying to find a specific page, this page should help you find it. If you are looking for a guide on how to solve a problem with any AI or generative art program, ask about it here, and I will make a guide about it for you.

If you want to start with creating AI images, you should start off with using an AI called Disco Diffusion, in my opinion, it’s one of the easiest to use and it makes good images with relatively little customization. If you want to run it on your own computer, you would need a nvidia graphics card with 12GB+ VRAM (If you don’t know what this is, you probably don’t have it). If you don’t have that, but still want to run Disco Diffusion locally, you can run it on CPU, any computer with over 16GB RAM can run it on CPU, but it’s very slow, even with a good CPU. If you don’t have a fancy computer and don’t want to wait a long time for a single image, you can run it on a website called colab (it’s made by google, sadly), where you run the program on one of Google’s servers rather than your own computer. The guide for running it locally is here, however, if you want to use colab, just open the colab link here and follow the instructions there, it’s designed to be easy to use even if you don’t know anything about it. Check out this page about what effects various settings have. Another very helpful AI artist created this cheatsheet explaining how to use Disco Diffusion.

If you want to see some of my creations entirely unrelated to AI, check out this page!

This site is mostly about AI generated art, but also some other computer generated art. You can find some examples here. You should also explore that page if you want to create computer art, but don’t have a powerful enough computer for AI generated art.

My latest posts are listed below. Posts often include updates and useful information:

Along with making guides for AIs, I’ve also made quite a few images and videos using AI. I have a list of recent ones I’ve made here. If you want to use my art in any personal, or commercial projects, please email me (eliso@botbox.dev).

The list below is recent comments on this website, if you are looking for help solving errors, this is likely where you’ll find it:

  1. The cache is a hidden folder (starts with “.”) somewhere either in the main folder or in your user directory.

  2. Thank you so much for sharing and helping I really appreciate what you are doing. I deleted my folders from…

  3. I use Quadro M4000, just works fine with this setthing. Thank you~

If you created some cool art using an AI, but it’s just not quite right, try some of the tools here.

  1. Amazing blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely confused .. Any suggestions? Thank you!

    • I use wordpress, but, you will need to pay in some form to use it yourself. I would highly advise against paying the big web hosting companies any more money, and instead use your own server.

  2. Right here is the perfect webpage for everyone who wishes to find out about this topic. You realize so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I really would want to…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a subject that has been discussed for ages. Great stuff, just excellent!

  3. Awesome blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog shine. Please let me know where you got your design. Cheers

  4. Awsome article and right to the point. I don’t know if this is in fact the best place to ask but do you folks have any thoughts on where to employ some professional writers? Thank you 🙂

    • Thanks for the positive feedback, this is definitely not the right place though, I individually run this website, and have no employees, and have no idea about employing writers.

  5. I want to to thank you for this great read!! I definitely loved every bit of it. I have got you book marked to check out new things you post…
