# Disco Diffusion AI Art on Q Blocks

Read time: 2 minutes

## What is Disco Diffusion?

Disco Diffusion is **a free tool that you can use to create “AI” generated art**. You can create machine learning generated images and videos with it.

> 🔥 So let’s get started with Disco Diffusion using DiscoArt on Q Blocks!

### Steps to run Disco Diffusion on Q Blocks:

1. Launch a [Q Blocks GPU Instance](https://www.qblocks.cloud/client/v2/create-instance) with “Disco Diffusion” AI Image
2. Access the instance through Jupyter Lab and open the Disco Diffusion Notebook.
3. Change the input text to a desired prompt and run Disco diffusion cell to generate artistic AI renderings for you. That’s it! 😀👨‍🎨

### Extra info:

Disco Diffusion requires powerful GPUs to get faster results and the environment setup can be complicated and difficult to get started with.

To make the process a lot easier, Q Blocks integrated Jina AI’s recent open source application Discoart - An easy to use disco diffusion software.

So Q Blocks GPU integrated experience with DiscoArt resulted in:

✅ Very easy one click setup

✅ Quick Disco Diffusion AI art generation within 2 minutes.

✅ More affordable GPU driven rendering using Q Blocks
