I've hit a wall - please help

A user running AI image generation on a graphics card with only 8GB of VRAM described hitting a wall and advised simplifying targets by tackling one adjustment at a time, starting with still images and refining image descriptions before grading how well the model follows them. The user noted that having many working components in a workflow makes it hard to judge which information is immediately useful, and that knowing the components is not the same as understanding the exact failures.

hmmm…

my AI imaging experice took place with a graphics card with only 8GB of VRAM.

the important componet of an operation like this is not to throway your ideas, but to simplify your targets.

give yourself 1 thing at a time to adjust and improve on.

that alows you to take away winds and losses from the process. what you learn from target one can then inform target 2. and then target 3, etc.

so as a basica stratigy. start with still images, and work on how you describe images, and then grade how well the model is following the image description. why? becase there are atleast 2 different possible failiers here:

its possible all of the things your downloaded could help EVENTUALLY. but atm you have so many working componets in your workflow that its hard to judge what is imediately usefull information, and what information cant be deciphered yet. and because of that, its almost impossible for anyone to give instructions on your direct setup on how to fix it, because knowing the componets isnt the same as understanding the exact failiers.
