Stable Diffusion 3 runs on RP2350 microcontroller, generating 128x128 images

A developer has successfully implemented a scaled-down version of Stable Diffusion 3 (SD3) on an RP2350 microcontroller. This achievement allows the device to generate 128x128 pixel images, specifically of faces. The project demonstrates the potential for running advanced AI models on resource-constrained hardware. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates the feasibility of running advanced AI models on low-power, embedded hardware.
