So image generation is where it's at?

Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.
Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.
As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.
Rules:
Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.
Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.

No, you can run sd, flux based model inside the koboldcpp. You can try it out using the original koboldcpp in google colab. It loads gguf model. Related discussion on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1gsdygl/koboldcpp_now_supports_generating_images_locally/
Edit: Sorry, I kinda missed the point, maybe I'm sleepy when writing that comment. Yeah, I agree that LLM need big memory to run which is one of it's downside. I remember someone doing comparison that API with token based pricing is cheaper that to run it locally. But, running image generation locally is cheaper than API with step+megapixel pricing.
Hmm. That does look like it. But I have a build out of git within the last two weeks or so, and the only backend image generation options it lists are AI Horde, KCPP/Forge/A1111, OpenAI/DALL-E, ComfyUI, and Pollinations.ai.
Maybe there's some compile-time option that needs to be set to build it in.

Hmm. I guess it just always has the embedded support active, and that's what "KCPP" is for; you need to configure it at http://localhost:5001/sdui, and then I guess you presumably choose "KCPP/Forge/A1111" as the endpoint. Still not clear where one plonks in the model, but it clearly is there. Sorry about that!
