This is cool and looks like a great way to drain my phone battery :)

I just used the prompt "A person looking at their phone in amazement" and got a good picture.

Beware that on startup the app downloads almost 2 gig of data.

It would be awesome if it just quickly took a picture from the front camera for that particular request and then just filter it to finish the "in the style of andy warhol"

I have generated some images, I think it only takes less than 1% of the battery for an image, this is already much better than most of the game(for having fun).

It took my battery from 80 to 77% for one generation on the default settings (384^2, 30 iterations). Less than a minute of compute time to complete a generation.

Iphone battery health reports a battery at 100% health. This is an iphone SE3.

Amazing how huge the difference in energy consumption is for the system in standby vs going full throttle.

EDIT: I generated 3 more images; every subsequent generation reduced battery capacity by another 2%. My phone doesn't seem to heat up at all, interestingly.

My iPhone 12 mini dropped from 76% to 71% and got noticeably warmer. Battery health is way worse than yours, 85%.

I wonder if generating a picture uses so much juice that it even drops the percentage while charging...

EDIT: Generating a picture while charging did not drop the percentage.

I generated a bunch of pictures while charging and the percentage still went up (albeit slowly).

Late to the party but depending on your charger voltage, it may be. e.g. I can charge my mbp on a cheap usb-usb-c charger but as soon as I use it _too_ much, it will stall, or worse, lower.

It does warn you on startup about the download if you're not on wifi.

[odysseus]

Good time to try 5G ultra capacity if you have it on an unlimited plan - will be faster than most people's wifi.

Pivot alert

I reached 3Gbps over Verizon 5G in San Antonio last year and this year i get about 4Mbps over Verizon 5G in Ohio. It’s so bad I disabled it. I did read an article that iPhone 12 (which is what I have) have some kind of radio issue with 5G. Can anyone in here confirm?

[badwolf]

Verizon has been real wonky all over Austin. If there's more than a handful of people in the area, bandwidth just goes to the crapper. I'll go from a couple hundred mbps on a good day with no clouds/wind/holding my phone just perfectly right in the right space, but usually get less than 1mbps on their 5g UW.

[smaddox]

Yeah, its really bad. I keep having to disable 5G.

(I have not downloaded it.)

Q: How long does a run typically take? 60 seconds?

From the link:

> It took a minute to summon the picture on the latest and greatest iPhone 14 Pro, uses about 2GiB in-app memory, and requires you to download about 2GiB data to get started. Even though the app itself is rock solid, given these requirements, I would probably call it barely usable.

also

> Even if it took a minute to paint one image, now my Camera Roll is filled with drawings from this app. It is an addictive endeavor. More than that, I am getting better at it. If the face is cropped, now I know how to use the inpainting model to fill it in. If the inpainting model doesn’t do its job, you can always use a paint brush to paint it over and do an image-to-image generation again focused in that area.

Seems very worth a try. I'm downloading the model right now, it's going a bit slow, ~2MB/s.
