Too much trafic

When I try to gen it says to much traffic help plz

Can we run this on our local machines, or can they setup a pay wall to prevents bad actors?

It's not going to get any better. This thing is popular because DALL-E is inaccessible to the public. 4chan is just a website. I found this through Twitter. Others will come from other sites. Creator needs to do some work to make this continue to function as it gets more popular. Put time limits on submissions from the same IP address. Limit usage to people with accounts. Create a queue system. Why do I need a confirmed email address just to write this comment, but not to generate images? Lots of very simple solutions here.

We are working on adding the model to Transformers with @valhalla so that everyone can easily use it

Great to hear that improvements are being made. I really believe that generation should be restricted to verified accounts. This could be implemented right away and it would just about solve the traffic issue while new measures can be put in place.

i wanna use it but cannot bc traffic this give me big sad please help?

While Dall-E mini is running on insanely high performance server hardware, the recent popularity has locked up the hardware making it incredibly difficult to get requests in. For reference, people who do AI development have been running this model on their workstations, machines with multiple GPUs and very high-end CPUs and still take minutes to generate images. For reference, a home computer with a mid-range processor and no GPU would more than likely take hours if not days to generate a single image. TONS of people are putting in queries every second and so i'ts difficult to get a request in as such. Most of these people are children, so your best bet to get images is requesting at night, during the weekday, or during typical US school hours (7-3 EST or PST). More than likely I see Dall-E mini going the same path as AI dungeon 2, where AI enthusiasts got to try it quickly when it released, the internet found out about it and overloaded the servers, and then the service host basically said pay up or shut down, so it goes pay to use and the popularity tanks almost instantly, which honestly for the devs might be the best possible outcome.
