Yep, Stable Diffusion & ControlNet can make for great QR codes. There are even a few dedicated models for it https://qrdiffusion.com/blog/controlnet-models-for-qr-codes

Yep, found those really interesting when they came out. I used to run an AI startup until a short while ago. In my opinion, the cost to utility ratio still isn't there for most use cases. So, that's why I wanted to find something deterministic, without all the compute consumption. NitroQRs generate the same as normal QRs with some good old computing, and can be generated in bulk for basically nothing.
