ComfyUI – Visual Programming for Generative AI

Generative AI

GenAI and Image generation in particular is very new and emerging fields. Here are some examples of few real world applications which will be very different in future as compared to how we do it now are -

1. Imagine designing UI components by not coding or spending hours in tools like Figma but describing in words.

2. Interactive fiction novel that generates the story based on user interaction.

3. 3D reconstruction using 2D images.

ComfyUI

ComfyUI is an opensource visual programing interface for building image generation workflows.

The USP's of this tool are -

1. It makes it super easy and fast to test different image/video generation workflows.

2. It has great community support.

ComfyUI is a great display of opensource collaboration. The workflows in ComfyUI are made such that they are very easy to share with others. This has led to a variety of ComfyUI workflow repositories where users upload workflows for interesting usecases, which other users can get inspiration for a different workflow or maybe even use it directly.

Some examples for the workflow respositories are Civit AI and OpenArt

The Talk

A quick demo of using ComfyUI with workflows taken from open-source workflow repositories for cool applications such as virtual clothing try on.
