Lazy-ass low-effort LoRA (LALELoRA?)

DISCLAIMER: I hate this way of making LoRAs. It is effective, it is fast, it is a mess. I can spot a few LoRAs on Civitai which were done this way.

This is how I made kCuteTanks, kCuteCreatures, kHorrorCrabs, kVoidEnergy, and kHastur.
It takes 5 minutes going from idea to clicking the "train" button.

REQUIREMENTS: Midjourney, Python, 5 minutes of time

Minute ONE (data selection)

• Open Midjourney, select explore, write your idea (like "cute creature"), hit Enter.

• Scroll down, click "expand results".

• Click "enable selection" in the top right corner, then click "select all" in the bottom.

• Optional: repeat with variations (like "cute animal")

Minute TWO (data collection)

Click "Downloader" and download all. Unzip all files to a single folder.

Wait a minute -- we didn't even check the pictures. What if there is a picture which does not fit the idea?

• First, we can't wait a minute. We have to make it under five.

• Second, do not care, this is the lazy-ass low-effort approach.

Minute THREE (captioning)

The names of the downloaded files have the following form:

[user]_[partof_prompt]_[id].png

Guess what: we just take the middle part and make it a caption.

We can also add a trigger word, and remove some words, like "cute", "creature".

GPT can easily write a procedure, which will do it for you. Since Civitai needs a file uploaded, I'm putting a python procedure I used.

Wait a minute -- The procedure does not ensure removal of the complete username. Also, there is only a part of the prompt. Such captions will be a mess!

• First, we can't wait a minute. We have to make it under five.

• Second, do not care, this is the lazy-ass low-effort approach.

Minute FOUR (training parameters)

Just take the config for kohya-ss from the other tutorial (https://civitai.com/models/52697/tutorial-konyconi-style-lora), set the number of epochs to 1-4 (depending on the amount of pictures), and click the "train" button.

Wait a minute -- Shouldn't we fiddle with the parameters, find what is best for the specific LoRA we are making?

• First, we can't wait a minute. We have to make it under five.

• Second, do not care, this is the lazy-ass low-effort approach.

Minute FIVE

Oh, there is no minute five. We actually could wait a minute.
