Run time and cost

This model costs approximately $0.044 to run on Replicate, or 22 runs per $1, but this varies depending on your inputs. It is also open source and you can run it on your own computer with Docker.

This model runs on Nvidia T4 GPU hardware. Predictions typically complete within 4 minutes. The predict time for this model varies significantly based on the inputs.

Limitations

Although minDALL-E is trained on a small set (14M image-text pairs), this might be vulnerable to malicious attacks from the prompt engineering to generate socially unacceptable images. If you obersve these images, please report the “prompt” and “generated images” to us.
