In addition to the API access, Stability AI has announced a new content creation platform, Stable Assistant Beta, where Stable Diffusion 3 and other models will be available. This platform, described as a friendly chatbot, allows paying subscribers to generate images, write content, or match photos to text through conversation. While not yet open to the public, a small number of users have been invited to try an early access release version. Despite these developments, Stability AI maintains that both Stable Diffusion 3 models remain under preview and are not yet available to the general public.
Key takeaways:
- Stability AI is making its next-generation text-to-image AI model, Stable Diffusion 3, available to some developers via API and a new content creation platform, despite it still being in preview.
