Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Stable Diffusion AI, our AI image generator, and photo editing tools.
Getting Started
Stable Diffusion is a cutting-edge AI image generation technology that transforms text descriptions into stunning visual images. It uses deep learning and diffusion models to progressively refine random noise into coherent, high-quality artwork that matches your prompts.
Yes! Our platform is completely free to use. You can generate unlimited AI images without any subscriptions, hidden fees, or watermarks. We believe everyone should have access to powerful AI art creation tools.
No account is required for basic image generation. However, creating a free account unlocks additional features like saving your creations, accessing your generation history, and getting priority processing during peak times.
Getting started is easy! Simply go to our AI Image Generator, type a description of what you want to create, select a style preset if desired, and click Generate. Your AI artwork will be ready in seconds.
Technology
Stable Diffusion uses a process called diffusion modeling. It starts with random noise and gradually removes it over many steps, guided by your text prompt. The model was trained on millions of image-text pairs, learning to understand the relationship between language and visual concepts.
Stable Diffusion 3.5 is the latest major version featuring improved image quality, better text rendering in images, enhanced understanding of complex prompts, and more photorealistic outputs. It includes variants like SD 3.5 Large (8B parameters) and SD 3.5 Large Turbo for faster generation.
SD 3.5 Large delivers the highest quality images but requires more processing time. SD 3.5 Large Turbo is optimized for speed, generating images in just 4 steps while maintaining excellent quality - perfect for rapid iteration and experimentation.
Diffusion models are a class of AI that learn to generate data by reversing a gradual noising process. During training, the model learns to denoise images step by step. During generation, it applies this learned denoising to transform pure noise into coherent images matching your description.
Usage & Features
For best results: 1) Be specific and descriptive (e.g., "golden retriever puppy playing in autumn leaves" instead of just "dog"), 2) Include style keywords (e.g., "oil painting," "photorealistic," "anime style"), 3) Mention lighting and mood, 4) Use negative prompts to exclude unwanted elements. Check our Guides for detailed tips.
We support multiple aspect ratios including 1:1 (square), 16:9 (landscape), 9:16 (portrait), 4:3, 3:4, and more. You can select your preferred aspect ratio before generating. Standard output resolution is optimized for each aspect ratio to ensure quality.
Yes! Our AI Photo Editor allows you to transform existing photos using natural language. You can change backgrounds, apply artistic styles, modify objects, enhance quality, and much more - all by simply describing what you want.
We offer 50+ style presets including Photorealistic, Digital Art, Anime, Oil Painting, Watercolor, Cyberpunk, Fantasy, Cinematic, Sketch, 3D Render, Pixel Art, Pop Art, and many more. Each preset adjusts the generation to match that artistic style.
Images you generate are yours to use. However, always check local laws regarding AI-generated content for commercial purposes. We recommend not using AI to create content that infringes on existing copyrights, trademarks, or depicts real individuals without consent.
Legal & Privacy
Copyright for AI-generated images is evolving legally. Generally, images you create using our tools are yours to use. However, copyright protection may vary by jurisdiction. We recommend consulting legal advice for high-stakes commercial use and always using AI responsibly and ethically.
We take privacy seriously. Your prompts and generated images are not used to train our models. Basic usage data may be collected for service improvement. For detailed information, please review our Privacy Policy.
The underlying Stable Diffusion models have processes for artists to request removal from future training datasets. Stability AI and the community continue to work on tools and policies to respect creator rights. Visit Stability AI for more information.
Yes, Stable Diffusion is widely used and considered safe. Our platform implements content filters to prevent generation of harmful content. The technology runs on secure servers and has been used by millions without security issues. We continuously monitor and improve our safety measures.
