Expand please. I think the initial hype is gone and we see that most implementations are not that much of a game changer just yet. Stable Diffusion can create images but its still incredibly cumbersome to find the right seed and prompt to get the image one desires. ControlNet, Inpainting, and Loras are helpful but have to be implemented in a useful workflow.


I agree that the hype has dissipated. I'd probably contribute a large part of that to media cycles though.

Personally, I think the use cases that go beyond chat are going to be the most valuable. Specifically, the ability to produce structured information.


Well, the internet had a hype-cycle as well... It went from very exciting to a niche for weirdoes to completely ubiquitous.
