AMD and Stability AI have released Stable Diffusion 3.0 Medium BF16, the first FP16 block text‑to‑image model optimized for AMD Ryzen AI laptops with XDNA 2 NPUs (50 TOPS). Using Amuse 3.1, the model runs fully locally, requiring 24 GB system RAM (model uses ~9 GB), and generates 1024×1024 images that are then upscaled to high‑quality 2048×2048 output, suitable for print and professional use. Available for Ryzen 7040/8040 and Ryzen AI 300/Max+, the model works offline and free under Stability AI’s Community License (for < $1M revenue). It promises faster, privacy‑preserving AI creativity on devices without cloud access.
