Prometheus is presumed to be the first full rank finetune of Playground v2.5, developed by the creator of the Proteus model. This text-to-image generation model has been specifically adapted to enhance accessibility for the open-source community.

Key Features and Considerations

Presumed First Full Rank Finetune of Playground v2.5:

- Complete parameter update of Playground v2.5 architecture

- Unique approach to fine-tuning this particular base model

Enhanced Accessibility:

- Custom sampling methods have been removed through brute force techniques

- Designed to be more compatible with standard open-source tools and workflows

- post processing applied to ensure backwards compatibility with most SDXL LoRAs and tools

Output Characteristics:

- Aims to provide a balance between consistency and diversity in outputs

- May exhibit some stylistic tendencies inherited from the training process

Training Approach:

- Utilizes the extensive Proteus datasets of over 400,000 images

- Brute force at scale training methodology

- Focused on maintaining model capabilities while increasing compatibility

Advanced Custom CLIP Integration:

- Incorporates a meticulously trained custom CLIP model

- Steadily developed over an extended period

Further fine-tuned for specific qualities in Proteus and Prometheus

- Requires a clip skip setting of 2 for optimal performance
