About Stable Diffusion 1.5
Stable Diffusion 1.5 (SD 1.5) is Stability AI's widely adopted open-source latent diffusion model, released October 2022. Despite being superseded by SDXL and later models, SD 1.5 remains a popular base for fine-tuning and community models due to its efficiency, extensive ecosystem (including ControlNet, LoRAs, and inpainting support), and low hardware requirements.
