        We have launched a new high-quality image model, Stable Diffusion, for inline generation of images in AI Dungeon. Stable Diffusion is an incredible new text-to-image AI model that will generate a unique image from a simple text prompt. We're excited about Stable Diffusion because not only are the images high quality, but the generation times and costs are lower than other models.
