AI developer ostrisai shared the story of the first diffusion model he ever released: "A Model, Idiot", a finetune of SD 1.5 trained on Zoolander's infinite versatility. Every prompt ended up generating the character's burned-in face. He admits it was completely useless — yet still counts it as one of his favorite things he has ever trained.
