- (🔥New) 2023/11/1 Real-Time Latent Consistency Models is out!! Github link here. Thanks @radames for the really cool Huggingface🤗 demo Real-Time Image-to-Image, Real-Time Text-to-Image. Twitter/X Link.
- (🔥New) 2023/10/28 We support Img2Img for LCM! Please refer to "🔥 Image2Image Demos".
- (🔥New) 2023/10/25 We have official LCM Pipeline and LCM Scheduler in 🧨 Diffusers library now! Check the new "Usage".
- (🔥New) 2023/10/24 Simple Streamlit UI for local use: See the link Thanks for @akx.
- (🔥New) 2023/10/24 We support SD-Webui and ComfyUI now!! Thanks for @0xbitches. See the link: SD-Webui and ComfyUI.
- (🔥New) 2023/10/23 Running on Windows/Linux CPU is also supported! Thanks for @rupeshs See the link.
- (🔥New) 2023/10/22 Google Colab is supported now. Thanks for @camenduru See the link: Colab
- (🔥New) 2023/10/21 We support local gradio demo now. LCM can run locally!! Please refer to the "Local gradio Demos".
- (🔥New) 2023/10/19 We provide a demo of LCM in 🤗 Hugging Face Space. Try it here.
- (🔥New) 2023/10/19 We provide the LCM model (Dreamshaper_v7) in 🤗 Hugging Face. Download here.
- (🔥New) 2023/10/19 LCM is integrated in 🧨 Diffusers library. Please refer to the "Usage".
We support Img2Img now! Try the impressive img2img demos here: Replicate, SD-webui, ComfyUI, Colab
Local gradio for img2img is on the way!
To run the model locally, you can download the "local_gradio" folder:
- Install Pytorch (CUDA). MacOS system can download the "MPS" version of Pytorch. Please refer to: https://pytorch.org. Install Intel Extension for Pytorch as well if you're using Intel GPUs.
- Install the main library:
pip install diffusers transformers accelerate gradio==3.48.0
- Launch the gradio: (For MacOS users, need to set the device="mps" in app.py; For Intel GPU users, set
device="xpu"in app.py)
python app.py
Ours Hugging Face Demo and Model are released ! Latent Consistency Models are supported in 🧨 diffusers.

By distilling classifier-free guidance into the model's input, LCM can generate high-quality images in very short inference time. We compare the inference time at the setting of 768 x 768 resolution, CFG scale w=8, batchsize=4, using a A800 GPU.
We have official LCM Pipeline and LCM Scheduler in 🧨 Diffusers library now! The older usages will be deprecated.
You can try out Latency Consistency Models directly on:
To run the model yourself, you can leverage the 🧨 Diffusers library:
- Install the library:
pip install --upgrade diffusers # make sure to use at least diffusers >= 0.22
pip install transformers accelerate
- Run the model:
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
import torch
pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("SimianLuo/LCM_Dreamshaper_v7")
# To save GPU memory, torch.float16 can be used, but it may compromise image quality.
pipe.to(torch_device="cuda", torch_dtype=torch.float32)
prompt = "Self-portrait oil painting, a beautiful cyborg with golden hair, 8k"
# Can be set to 1~50 steps. LCM support fast inference even <= 4 steps. Recommend: 1~8 steps.
num_inference_steps = 4
images = pipe(prompt=prompt, num_inference_steps=num_inference_steps, guidance_scale=8.0, lcm_origin_steps=50, output_type="pil").imagesFor more information, please have a look at the official docs: 👉 https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/api/pipelines/latent_consistency_models#latent-consistency-models
We have official LCM Pipeline and LCM Scheduler in 🧨 Diffusers library now! The older usages will be deprecated. But you can still use the older usages by adding revision="fb9c5d1" from from_pretrained(...)
To run the model yourself, you can leverage the 🧨 Diffusers library:
- Install the library:
pip install diffusers transformers accelerate
- Run the model:
