DiffusionBee is a cutting-edge app designed to generate AI art on macOS devices using Stable Diffusion. In that sense, it allows users to swiftly create new artwork from text prompts or alter existing images in various ways — including adding or removing objects, changing styles, and enhancing image resolution.
The tool operates entirely offline, ensuring privacy and security by not sending any data to the cloud. Still, DiffusionBee provides a user-friendly platform for both artists and enthusiasts to explore the possibilities of AI-generated art with no associated costs.
The app comes with various features like text-to-image conversion, image-to-image transformation, in-painting, out-painting, upscaling, and custom models. Importantly, DiffusionBee is also very fast, and can do its magic in as little as 30 seconds on an 8GB M1 MacBook Air, with even faster speeds on higher-spec computers. It requires macOS 12.5.1 or higher and is optimized for devices with Apple silicon, though it also supports Intel-based Macs with reduced performance.
In a nutshell, DiffusionBee positions itself as an accessible tool for creating AI art on Macs.
