Thanks to a joint effort by researchers at UW Madison, Columbia University, and Microsoft, users can now accurately position objects in their images, giving them more control and customization options when creating AI images with Stable Diffusion.

This novel approach is likely to inspire several creative disciplines at once and lead to entirely new possibilities.

What is GLIGEN and how does it work?

GLIGEN stands for “Grounded-Language-to-Image Generation” and extends the functionality of existing text-to-image diffusion models.

In their recently published paper “GLIGEN: Open-Set Grounded Text-To-Image Generation”, the research team shows how their new approach adds object placement to Stable Diffusion’s growing arsenal of capabilities.

What about ControlNet?

ControlNet is great for a number of things, but for precise object placement, one…
