I've started to ask myself if my own creativity is a result of random sampling from the diffusion tapestry of associated memories and experience on that topic.

I do wonder what Dall-E 2 would output for a request along the lines of "A still life of a vase of flowers in a completely new art style."

From my experiments, the LD one doesn't seem to have been trained on as big or as tagged data set - there's a whole bunch of "in the style of X" that the VQGAN knows* about but the LD doesn't. That might have something to do with it.
