My original comment was about the timing when the image is 'created'. The 'finiteness' was supposed to be the supporting argument, but the other commenter put it in better words: "deterministic" (Even though they disagree on that). I'm not sure why you are so hung up on the word 'catalogue', that was just illustrative wording.

If you mean to be "technically correct", then it isn't an interesting statement.

My comment startet with the very word "technically". If you find that uninteresting you're free to just scroll by

Naah. I call BS. You know what you're implying.

TeChNicAlLy it sort of already existed. A diffusion model can only generate an impossibly huge but finite number of images, and the content of these images is determined when the model is created. So when you 'generate' images you're kinda just browsing a catalog

The "already existed" gives it away. No, this didn't "sort of already existed", and there is no technically correct interpretation that can give you the benefit of the doubt either.

content of these images is determined when the model is created

Nope. The diffusion model guides a random noise image. Mathematically, any image can be generated out of pure randomness without any effect by model. See how silly and uninteresting "technical correct" makes things?

So when you 'generate' images you're kinda just browsing a catalog

Nope.

It is OK to admit you were wrong. No need to double down on this. I just wanted to explain why it was wrong.
