Farhad ShababiHOST
is a cease and desist letter for now.
Farhad ShababiHOST
So why are they sending this? So let's go to ComfyUI's website.
Farhad ShababiHOST
Previously, what they have launched, they have a challenge called...
Farhad ShababiHOST
So on the left, you will see Hicksfield CEO.
Farhad ShababiHOST
On the right is ComfyUI CEO.
Farhad ShababiHOST
So the challenge is called Open Source Hicksfield.
Farhad ShababiHOST
What they are saying that...

Faraz ShababiHOST
That's why I'm thinking it sounds a bit strange now that Comfy UI is doing the same thing.
DaShaun CarterHOST
You could call, right?
Pratik PatelGUEST
I mean, I use Comfy UI to do that, but Comfy UI has an MCP server inside of it, so you can have your Spring call a Comfy UI workflow, and boom, you're in business.
Pratik PatelGUEST
There you go.
Pratik PatelGUEST
Thank you.
Jacob RhoadesPANELIST
and tubas, Jacob.

How's it going, everyone? Last week, we didn't have the pod, but I wasn't on because I was in San Francisco at a Best Buy in downtown San Francisco with folks like co-founder of NVIDIA, folks like the founder of OpenClaw, Peter, folks like the founder of Comfy UI, which we showed on stage, Microsoft showed on stage a couple weeks ago, and about 400 people buying their first RTX Spark device.
Jacob RhoadesPANELIST
400?! !
Frank BuchholzHOST
Were they all surface or were they the other OEMs too?
Artificial IntelligenceNARRATOR
Graph prompting.
Artificial IntelligenceNARRATOR
Graphs, like the ones in Comfy UI.
Artificial IntelligenceNARRATOR
Knowledge augmentation.
Artificial IntelligenceNARRATOR
Second agent.
Hisko HulsingGUEST
They look sort of painterly, but in a Photoshop kind of way.
Hisko HulsingGUEST
And then I met a guy who was working with Comfy UI, which is a very, I would say it was a very crude early AI tool two and a half years ago.
Hisko HulsingGUEST
And I just thought, what if we program our own shaders and we feed the machine, the beast, with my paintings and see if we can make this 3D animation that is completely animated by artists in Blender and Houdini.
Hisko HulsingGUEST
Yeah.
31 MINS LATER
Orlando WoodHOST
That provided you the funding to go ahead with the animation.
Orlando WoodHOST
Yes.
Orlando WoodHOST
The comfy UI and the AI part of it Is that something that came after you started production? Or was it the introduction of the AI that allowed it to be done for a price that meant that the money that you were being given was actually going to make it work?
Hisko HulsingGUEST
It was an entirely creative decision.
Edward OjamboHOST
You can use Python, torch.
Edward OjamboHOST
This is a simple way actually for how I usually install Comfy UI.
Edward OjamboHOST
I just do it manually.
Edward OjamboHOST
By the way, I wish I had not gotten rid of Comfy UI.
Edward OjamboHOST
I had to get rid of it because I was testing some other models.
Edward OjamboHOST
The first release in 1991 introduced a focus on readability and clean syntax.
Edward OjamboHOST
AI ecosystem, library availability is dominant.
Edward OjamboHOST
It's Python.
Edward OjamboHOST
So let's go and I think that should be it here.
Edward OjamboHOST
Now, if you're using Python, you probably guys already know this, especially if you use like Comfy UI or something like that.
Edward OjamboHOST
You know, you install Touch Vision, uh, Touch Vision, Touch Audio, and then you pick, uh, for example, this is CUDA, you pick the version number.
Edward OjamboHOST
If it's, uh, ROCm, you pick the specific ROCm.
Edward OjamboHOST
Uh, and then you can, uh, [clears throat] this is obviously when you're running stuff, uh, manually, but for me, um, yeah, people must...
Edward OjamboHOST
People prefer something like a Comfy UI.
Edward OjamboHOST
I, I like Stable Diffusion.php because I don't have to get all these huge, uh, uh, uh, dependencies because it's just a C++.
Edward OjamboHOST
All right.
Varun MayyaHOST
You've seen some of the, the AI video we did with the chimpanzee recently.
Varun MayyaHOST
You've seen, like, you know, the anime we did three years ago, which we had to use Comfy UI for and was garbage.
Varun MayyaHOST
So I just feel like this channel is like a testament to the progress because all we've been doing is using the tools, right? We've been stress testing it with our own use cases, and you're seeing how it gets better.
Varun MayyaHOST
Extrapolate this another two, three years.
MattHOST
So this-
FloydHOST
So the, the pig itself is, is AI generated, and then I ran it through my process I have with Comfy UI, and, and, uh, I have the, uh, Astra model of ChatGPT, uh, 6.1 Sol is what I used for this.
FloydHOST
And I'm using that as a front end kind of harness for Comfy UI to tell it what to do, and then it checks it against it.
FloydHOST
So you see this little text up here and it says QA and all that stuff? What I had it do is I s- told it to animate, and then I said, "Check the result and make sure that it looks good." So it, this was the check that passed, and it gave it back to me.
FloydHOST
And it, it's got a frame counter on it, so if I s- had a problem on frame, like, 31, I could say, "Oh, this is messed up.
17 MINS LATER
FloydHOST
And if you really wanna get crazy, do all local generation.
FloydHOST
That's what I've actually turned to because it's cheaper.
FloydHOST
Yes, it takes longer, but, like, that pig that you saw, that was all Comfy UI on my local desktop-
Edward OjamboHOST
Now, Python is one of those languages that's been around, uh, and just when its popularity was a little bit waning, the AI revolution came up, and that's really made it really, really popular again.
Edward OjamboHOST
You know, stuff like ComfyUI.
Edward OjamboHOST
There's a lot, uh, you know, PyTorch, those type of things.
Edward OjamboHOST
Uh, so, uh, because it's an easy language for people to get, uh, their head wrapped around it.
