Announcing ThinkDiffusion’s Latest Innovation, the ThinkDiffusionXL (TDXL) Model, the Ultimate Free AI Art Model for Realistic and Diverse Creations With Easy Prompts

HOUSTON, November 12, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Just launched: ThinkDiffusionXL (TDXL) — the latest and most advanced Stable Diffusion model to hit the open-source community. Designed for artists, creators, and developers, TDXL is not just another AI model; it’s the premier model for photorealism and all-around performance, all without the steep learning curve of complex prompting.

A Herculean Effort in Training 

With over 750 hours dedicated to training and meticulous hand-captioning of images taking up to 400 hours, the TDXL team has developed a model that stands out in the crowd. The training involved 1.8 million steps, dwarfing other models like Juggernaut and RealVisXL, and was conducted over a 42GB dataset of more than 10,000 diverse images. Our smallest resolution starts at 1365×2048, scaling up to an impressive 4622×6753, ensuring that every detail is captured with clarity.

Unmatched Detail and Quality 

The TDXL model shines in its attention to detail. Unlike other XL models that struggle with background details and features like eyes and skin, TDXL brings an unparalleled level of realism. This is the result of our expansive and high-quality dataset, which contains twice the image material of Juggernaut and significantly more than RealVisXL.

More Versatility Less Bias 

In an effort to provide a balanced and more unbiased artistic experience, TDXL has been trained with an equal number of images for each style and category. This lessens the common biases found in other models, allowing for true creative freedom whether you’re looking for a landscape, portrait, full-body shot, or anything in between.

Ease of Use and Accessibility 

ThinkDiffusionXL champions ease of use with simple prompting that yields high-quality images with less effort. The model stands alone, requiring no additional refinements, and is provided in the Safetensors format, safeguarded against any trojans, ensuring a safe and seamless creative process.

Committed to the Open-Source Ethos 

In alignment with our commitment to the open-source ethos, TDXL is and always will be completely free to use for any purpose. We believe in democratizing creativity and are proud to contribute to a community that thrives on collaboration and innovation.

Ready to explore the capabilities of TDXL? It’s preinstalled on ThinkDiffusion and available for free on all open-source model download sites. Experience the power of a model trained for all art styles and photorealism, where ease of use, detail, and inclusivity come together to create the ultimate tool for AI art generation.

The digital tool has earned global recognition for its innovative project about the legacy of the Type Directors Club

NEW YORK, November 3, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Readymag, the design tool for creating websites without coding, has been honored with the Red Dot Award for Brands and Communication Design 2023. The award-winning project, “The Faces Behind Typefaces,” is a digital editorial shedding light on the significance of the Type Directors Club (TDC) and its medalists in the global design and typography community. The announcement of the winners took place on November 3, 2023, at the Red Dot Gala in Berlin.

“The Faces Behind Typefaces” received the Red Dot Award in the Brands & Communication Design category as a Webspecial project. 

“The ‘Faces Behind Typefaces’ digital editorial has found resonance within the global design and typography community,” says Diana Kasay, co-founder and CEO of Readymag. “The Red Dot Award is our common win. It was born as a result of fruitful collaboration with TDC, and it vividly illustrates Readymag’s goal — to push the limits of web design together with creators. This project serves as a clear demonstration of Readymag’s creative potential as an innovative tool for storytelling and design.”

“We’re proud that The Faces Behind Typefaces has documented some of the greats of the profession and provides an engaging, informative, lasting forum for their high-regarded creative thinking and work,” commented Carol Waller, executive director of the Type Directors Club, the leading organization for the global type community and part of The One Club for Creativity. “The greats featured in The Faces Behind Typefaces are truly global in stature and influence, and many of their creations are still in use today. Highlighting and celebrating these people behind their great work is a critical way of informing and educating the current and next generation of creatives in general, and typographers and type designers in particular.”  

Designed to foster meaningful dialogue between generations of typographers, “The Faces Behind Typefaces” connects prominent figures in the field of type design. “The Faces Behind Typefaces” is a deep-dive into the impact and legacy of the TDC Medal and past medalists consisting of seven chapters. Sven Lindhorst-Emme discusses Paula Scher’s role in type design, Qian Sun focuses on Paul Rand’s legacy, Douglas Davis emphasizes Ed Benguiat’s impact on creative fields, Akira Kobayashi reminisces about Adrian Frutiger, Fer Cozzi explores the educational mission of Rubén Fontana, Luisa Baeta delves into Gerard Unger and his visionary ideas, and Jean-Baptiste Levée examines the liberating role of Emigre.

Readymag is a design tool for creating outstanding websites without code. It aims to inspire, educate, and nurture its user community by creating multi-genre web projects that explore the backbones of design and capture the spirit of the modern web era.

Gatekeeper Press is pleased to announce “Ludicrous Returns vs. the Market” launch in November 2023. This book introduces a new groundbreaking approach for investing. Author Joe Furnari is an experienced investor with an MBA in Finance and also an Engineer with a passion for data analysis.

Book Highlights:

• New investment approach is based on “patterns that predict consistently over the long term”
• Stock Investment model developed for optimizing performance on stock investments
• Market timing model developed for optimizing performance on S&P500 equity index investments

“I had a vision to earn game-changer returns vs. the market by seeking patterns that predict performance” – Joe Furnari

The book describes development of the stock investment model, which includes an in-depth analysis conducted on stock patterns over a 50-year period, from 1970 to 2020. This analysis led to the discovery of “patterns that predict consistently over the long term.”  These predictive patterns were also found to be common across stocks of multiple industries and market caps. The book defines these patterns and shows illustrative examples of the high correlation to predict performance.

To prove the stock model effectiveness, a 14-year simulation test from 2007 to 2020. The test results were astonishing. Average annual return was 44.5%, compared to S&P 500 11.1%. This is not a day trading model.

Joe Furnari applied advanced mathematics and statistical techniques to identify chart features with a high probability to future 3-6 month performance. He refined the model and retested repeatedly until the model delivered “Ludicrous Returns vs. the Market.” This book provides instructions on how to apply the stock investment model.

The discovery of patterns that predict also led to the development of the market timing model. Tailored for 401K accounts restricted to equity index funds, this model identifies optimal cash vs. S&P 500 equity position. The model is configured to identify when to exit equities ahead of potential crashes and when to re-enter. In a simulated 52-year test spanning from 1970 to 2021, this model accumulated wealth at a staggering 4.8 times the buy-and-hold strategy.

“Ludicrous Returns vs. the Market” will help readers learn how to:

1. Create a high-performing stock portfolio.
2. Screen for best-performing 15% of stocks and stocks to avoid.
3. Identify optimized time to buy.
4. Identify strategic time to sell.
5. Time the Market buying and selling S&P500 equity index at optimized times.
6. Apply the stock investment and market timing models with illustrative examples.

Book is available in Kindle, eBook, paperback or hardcover.

About the Author: Joe Furnari has an MBA in Finance and investment experience dating back to the 1990’s. Joe also has an Engineering background and is a data science enthusiast. He has unveiled a revolutionary technical analysis approach to stock trading and market timing in his groundbreaking book, “Ludicrous Returns vs. the Market.”

Their Non-Alcoholic Hemp THC Seltzers and New Cannabis Dispensaries are Infusing Fun for Cannabis Consumers Throughout The Bay State While Promoting Safe, Responsible Access

BOSTON, November 2, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Iconic duo Cheech & Chong^TM are headed to Massachusetts for two groundbreaking partnerships that will leave Massachusetts buzzing. The team, widely known for their cannabis comedy classics like UP IN SMOKE, are on a mission to bring the joy and fun back to cannabis while ensuring safe, responsible access.

Cheech & Chong’s High & Dry Hemp-Derived THC Seltzers Now Available in Stores Across Boston 

Cheech & Chong, in partnership with Atlantic Beverage Distributors, are bringing their High & Dry^TM Hemp THC seltzers to liquor stores throughout the greater Boston area. 

Tommy Chong explains, “We’re all about makin’ it simple for folks to get what they need, whether you’re in a dispensary or in the liquor store. It’s all about takin’ care of the community.”

With zero alcohol, zero calories, and 5 MGs of hemp-derived THC, these seltzers are the newest way for Cheech & Chong to achieve their mission of providing responsible access to the plant for all adults. They’re perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a “buzz” without the hangover.

Brandon Harshbarger, President, Cheech and Chong’s Global Holding Company, revealed, “This initial rollout in Boston has been incredible. And that all comes down to the team at Atlantic Beverage. They are the ‘Kings of Craft Beer in Boston’ for a reason. Looking at their history in the adult beverage space, there was no better partner. We’re proud to have them on board the Cheech & Chong team.” 

To celebrate, Cheech & Chong are bringing the party to The Bay State. They’ll be toasting to the new beverages at the Liquor Junction in Reading, Massachusetts, on Nov. 10. 

Meet the iconic duo and join the beverage revolution at 1 General Way, Reading, MA 01867, from 5-7 p.m. It’s the “Boston T-HC party” you won’t want to miss.

Cheech & Chong Join Forces With Toroverde for the Debut of Cheech & Chong’s Dispensorias^TM 

But the Cheech & Chong revolution in Massachusetts doesn’t end with the beverage line. The duo have always been about more than just cannabis; they’re about celebrating the vibrant culture and sense of community that surrounds it. That’s why they’ve partnered with dispensary operator Toroverde to launch Cheech & Chong’s Dispensorias, a line of cannabis dispensaries in Massachusetts.

Cheech & Chong’s Dispensorias are not just places to purchase cannabis; they’re a destination for laughter, connection, and unforgettable experiences. Cheech Marin, one-half of the legendary duo, put it best, saying, “Legalization is great, but the industry lost some of the fun along the way. We wanted to bring back the fun and excitement and laughter with the Dispensorias. We wanted to do it different than anyone else — almost like another ‘cannabis revolution.’ And we figured, what better place to start a revolution than Massachusetts?”

With three Dispensorias opening in November, including locations in Whately, Greenfield, and Northampton, residents across Massachusetts will now have a place to purchase premium cannabis at affordable prices, while enjoying the unique world of Cheech & Chong.

Jonathan Gonzalez, Market Manager, Toroverde, said, “We’ve taken all the best parts of a dispensary: safe, legal access to premium cannabis, expert budtenders, and top-notch customer service, and tossed all the boring, corporate parts. When you apply that ‘Cheech & Chong’ feel to a dispensary, all of a sudden, everyone is just having a lot more fun.”

Jonathan Black, CEO of Cheech and Chong’s Global Holding Company, stated, “We’ve worked hard to ensure that our Dispensorias are designed to break down barriers, foster a sense of community, and give every cannabis consumer, regardless of experience level, access to a safe, responsible, and reputable cannabis experience, boosted by the connection of two legends in the space.”

But that’s not all. Cheech & Chong will also be throwing a Dispensoria Grand Opening Party on Nov. 11. Join the guys in person at 424 State Rd., Whately, MA 01373 from 2-6 p.m., with a Cheech & Chong Meet-and-Greet from 3-5 p.m. 

While there will be no cannabis consumption on site, fans 21 years of age and older are encouraged to come down and enjoy the experience to see the Dispensoria difference for themselves. This is not just a party; it’s a chance to hang out with Cheech and Tommy and christen the Dispensorias in true Cheech & Chong style.
