## Decision facts: stable-diffusion

- **Adopt for:** Stable-diffusion is a state-of-the-art latent text-to-image diffusion model underpinning image generation from textual inputs.

## Choose when

### Choose agentheroes if…

- agentheroes is primarily TypeScript; stable-diffusion is Jupyter Notebook.
- Tags unique to agentheroes: agent, agents, ai, chatgpt.
- Also covers AI Agents.
- agentheroes ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.

### Choose stable-diffusion if…

- stable-diffusion is primarily Jupyter Notebook; agentheroes is TypeScript.
- Tags unique to stable-diffusion: diffusion model, latent space, text-to-image.
- For generating images based on text prompts with high fidelity and artistic detail.

## When NOT to use agentheroes

- Last GitHub push was 387 days ago (dormant maintenance, Jun 23, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on agentheroes.
- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.

## When NOT to use stable-diffusion

- If the computational resources are limited, as it requires significant GPU power to train or fine-tune models.
- In cases where real-time generation performance is critical, due to its computation-intensive process.
