Models for stable diffusion with Bumblebee in 2025

Hi everybody !

I’ve been playing with Bumblebee’s stable diffusion following the documentation and this article What does AI dream about? Stable Diffusion in Elixir.

The model used in these example (CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4) is 2+ years old, and the results and performance are kind of obsolete compared with newer models. Other models such as Flux.1 are not yet supported by Bumblebee (I understand keeping up with all the new models is a Herculean task).

Are there some people using Bumblebee’s stable diffusion here and if so, what models are you using?

Cheers!

Hey! Unfortunately, Bumblebee doesn’t support more recent model types at this time. The development around Stable Diffusion has been very quick and it’s pretty much its own ecosystem, so we haven’t had the capacity to keep up with those developments. The gap is large, but PRs are always welcome.
