Stable Diffusion is an open source image generating machine learning model (similar to Midjourney).
Stable Diffusion 3 is the next major version of the model and, in a lot of ways, it looks better to work with than what we currently have. However, up until recently we were wondering if we would even get the model since Stability AI ran out of funding and they’re in the midst of being sold off.
The “weights” refer to the values that make up the neural network. Basically by releasing the weights they are essentially saying that they are making the model open-source so that the community can retrain/fine-tune the model as much as we want.
They made a wait list for those who are interested in getting notified once the model is released, and they turned it into a pun by calling it a “weights list”.

SD? SD 3? The weights? All the above?

No I mean what’s this wait-list for?
We already know it’s coming it on the 12.
