Want to understand the AI model actually behind Harry Potter by Balenciaga or the infamous image of the Pope in the puffer jacket? Well.. diffusion frameworks such as DALLE 2, Midjourney, Imagen or Stable Diffusion seem to get a lot of credit, where as the true unsung hero of the story is the underlying UNet architecture that they all actually use under the hood. Don't get me wrong Diffusion models are awesome but the UNet is an absolute STAPLE when it comes to computer vision and this video aims to break it down in an easy way. Originally used for image segmentation the UNet has developed into so much more. Happy watching!
