Official codebase for GLIDE, a diffusion-based text-conditional image synthesis model from OpenAI. It provides pretrained models and notebooks for text-to-image generation, text-guided inpainting, and CLIP-guided sampling.

Use cases

• generate images from text prompts
• inpaint a masked region of an image guided by a text description
• run CLIP-guided diffusion sampling for image synthesis
• experiment with classifier-free guidance in diffusion models
• reproduce GLIDE research results

When to choose

• you want to run the original filtered GLIDE model for text-to-image generation
• you need text-guided inpainting with a diffusion model
• you are researching diffusion-based image synthesis and want reference code

When to avoid

• you need state-of-the-art image quality from a modern text-to-image model
• you want a production-ready or actively maintained image generation service
• you lack a GPU or cannot run large pretrained models locally
