I wish they had more examples. the image doesn't seem to be that much better than if you generate an image with stable diffusion and then tweak the prompt.
What's interesting to me is that the project feels very "un-Apple", despite being open-sourced under the Apple org; some typos and lack of proper punctuation in the README, using jupyter notebooks for the data processing instead of scripts or a CLI, poor repo organization, no comments even in the demo: https://github.com/apple/ml-mgie/blob/main/demo.ipynb

Apple truly becoming an ML company when they release ML Engineer quality code ;)

Clicking on the names at the top of the readme, it appears as though it is a collaboration of researchers both inside and outside of Apple.

Wait, they can do that? Assuming weights have copyright, shouldn't the finetuning be a modification of the original work and so have the same license?

The “weight differentials” are like, a patch that can be applied to the original weights, right?
