Red-Teaming the Stable Diffusion Safety Filter

Rando, Javier, Paleka, Daniel, Lindner, David et al.

Understand

Stable Diffusion is a recent open-source image generation model comparable to proprietary models such as DALLE, Imagen, or Parti.

  • Stable Diffusion comes with a safety filter that aims to prevent generating explicit images.
  • Unfortunately, the filter is obfuscated and poorly documented.
  • This makes it hard for users to prevent misuse in their applications, and to understand the filter's limitations and improve it.
