How and from what was the negative prompt created?

It's pretty simple: I took all the tags from popular imageboards, loaded them into a chatbot with a lot of context, and asked it to highlight those that directly or indirectly indicate low quality.

Where did the tags come from?

Tags from these sites were used: Danbooru, E621, Derpibooru as well as a few tags frequently used in the community.

How were they sorted?

The full list of tags for each site separately (which is 2.5 mb of tags from Danbooru for example) were fed into Gemini 1.5 pro several times in a row for each resource. Then all the garbage was thrown out and only really necessary tags were left. Then a repeated check for duplication, reality and usefulness of these tags was performed.

Test results

Data to generate

Recommended parameters (these are the ones we tested with):

• Prompt - score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, score_5_up, score_4_up, {prompt} highres, incredibly absurdres,

• PDXL base model

• Clip skip 2

• Sampling method - Euler a

• Sampling steps - 25

• CFG Scale 8.5

• W/H - I highly recommend using something like 1024x1360, it really improves the quality of the result a lot. In short, do not lower any of the sides below 1024px.

Disclaimer about the doesnotexist tag, it is very interesting and I need to write a separate article about it, you can do it if you want!

Important! Don't use the doesnotexist tag without weakening as here - (doesnotexist:0.65) otherwise it causes errors and artifacts.

Anime Aesthetic Predict was used for evaluation, you can use it to test the prompt yourself.

Conclusions:

Even though the "With anti AI tags and with doesnotexist" option scored more points, I like the "With anti AI tags and with doesnotexist" better.
