Having a project hit the front page of Hacker News is a noble goal of any software engineer. Someone posted about ArtBot and it got up to position #5!
10,000,000 images created with ArtBot!
Alright, this is pretty awesome! 🎉
Last night at 11:27PM, my little generative AI side project, ArtBot, crossed 10,000,000 images created. People have created some pretty cool stuff.
Some random stats from Google Analytics since it launched on October 9th, 2022 to now:
- 71,000 unique users
- 8.3 million page views.
ArtBot mentioned again in PC World!
ArtBot got another callout in PC World in the article: “The best AI art generators: Bring your wildest dreams to life.”
Though a bit of (fair) criticism at the end of the blurb though:
Why use Artbot? The vast number of AI models, and the variance in style those images produce. Otherwise, generating images via Artbot can be a bit of a crapshoot, and you may expend a great number of kudos simply exploring all the options. Since there’s no real setup besides figuring out the API key, Stable Horde (Artbot) can be worth a try.
Hey, I’ll take it!
5,000,000 images created with ArtBot!
ArtBot keeps chugging along! 5,000,000 images have been created.
ArtBot written up in PC World!
Hah! This is pretty awesome. My nifty side project, ArtBot, has been written up in PC World as part of a larger article about Stable Horde (the open source backend that powers my web app):
Stable Horde has a few front-end interfaces to use to create AI art, but my preferred choice is ArtBot, which taps into the Horde. (There’s also a separate client interface, with either a Web version or downloadable software.)
Interestingly enough, ArtBot just passed 2,000,000 images generated!
