I don’t understand why there are such utterly different types of results these last days/weeks. No matter what option you use for an art style, results always seem to tend towards the same types of imagery, too much shiny, glistening AI comic book figures. The update from Aug 8 gave wonderful results in all kinds of art styles with many great looking results. Why this constant updating?

I highly doubt this will ever happen as the dev has been firm on their decision (from what I can tell, at least) to change the model, and this has been a permanent change and will probably remain as such for a long time. Although, if you do want the old LLM back for an ACC type experience, you might need to do a deep dive into coding an entirely new ACC from the ground up that uses the old LLM, which could take a long time and incur costs as using LLMs isn’t free.
