-
Create Your Workshop Copy:
- In the Google Colab file menu, select "Save a copy in Drive" to have your own version of the workshop. This is crucial for installing packages and creating images.
-
Connect to Google Colab Server:
- On the right side of your screen in Google Colab, find the connection options.
- By default, you'll be assigned a T4 GPU with 16GB of memory. For better performance, opt for a 100 GPU, although it may incur costs.
-
Prepare Your Workspace:
- Create a folder for your photos, preferably named using a unique handle (e.g., a combination of your name).
- Ensure all photos are 512x512 pixels to avoid errors.
-
Execute the Code:
- Google Colab assigns server space to run the code. You'll use either console commands (prefixed with
!
) or Python code directly. - Begin by running the first blocks of code. Click the "Play" button beside each code block to execute.

-
Configure Your Model:
- Update the code to recognize your photo directory by changing the handle in the specified line.
- Specify the class of your avatar, e.g., "a photo of a woman", in the model parameters to personalize the output.
-
Train Your Model:
- Training might take up to 15 minutes. Patience is key.
- Once training is complete, you can start experimenting with your model.
- Use your unique handle to generate images with Stable Diffusion.
- The process allows for creative input, so experiment with different prompts to see what the model can create.
