Artificial intelligenceModels, how to run them and their limits

SDXL

Stable Diffusion XL

An image generator by Stability AI, for years the foundational tool in the open-source AI graphics ecosystem. The model has approximately 3.5 billion parameters and a vast number of community-created add-ons.

Why it matters

Still the best-documented and most widely supported image model — the most tools, fixes, and specialized add-ons have been developed for it.

What's missing without it

Without familiarity with SDXL, it's difficult to leverage community contributions: most guides, add-ons, and pre-configured settings were created specifically for it.

When it is used

In older deployments and wherever a custom-trained add-on for a specific style or character is needed.

How we use it

We tested it in-house in September 2026 and removed it: with the same prompt, Qwen and FLUX produced clearly better results, while SDXL consumed disk space.
