A new paper from Hugging Face researchers explores the trade-off between speed and safety in few-step text-to-image models. They found that faster generation times in these distilled models often lead to higher rates of unsafe content, and that existing methods for removing unwanted concepts are less effective. To address this, the researchers developed DICE, a new post-distillation erasure technique tailored for few-step models that shows improved results in reducing unsafe generations while preserving overall quality.
