# waifu-diffusion-xl - Diffusion for Rich Weebs
waifu-diffusion-xl is a latent text-to-image diffusion model that has been conditioned on high-quality anime images through fine-tuning StabilityAI's SDXL 0.9 model provided as a research preview.

## Model Description(s)
- [wdxl-aesthetic-0.9](https://huggingface.co/hakurei/waifu-diffusion-xl/blob/main/wdxl-aesthetic-0.9.safetensors) is a checkpoint that has been finetuned against our in-house aesthetic dataset which was created with the help of 15k aesthetic labels collected by volunteers. This model also used Stability.AI's [SDXL 0.9 checkpoint](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-0.9) as the base model for finetuning.
## License
This model has been released under the [SDXL 0.9 RESEARCH LICENSE AGREEMENT](https://huggingface.co/hakurei/waifu-diffusion-xl/blob/main/LICENSE.md) due to the repository containing the SDXL 0.9 weights before an official release. We have been given permission to release this model.
## Downstream Uses
This model can be used for entertainment purposes and as a generative art assistant.
