AI Face Swap Battle: PuLID vs InstantID vs FaceID

🚀 AI Face-Swapping Showdown: PuLID vs. InstantID vs. IP-Adapter's FaceID-V2! 🎭
Hey everyone, my name is Wei! Welcome to my channel. In this exciting tutorial, we're diving deep into a comparison of three cutting-edge AI face-swapping technologies: PuLID, InstantID, and IP-Adapter's FaceID-V2. Using a ComfyUI workflow, we'll analyze their performance and effectiveness, helping you decide which one suits your needs best.
🔧 What You'll Need:
- ComfyUI installed and updated.
- Necessary nodes and models for PuLID, InstantID, and IP-Adapter's FaceID-V2 (links provided in the description).

mate, this type of videos are soo good ! comparing similar models! u should make more and more !!! XD

[@SachinVerma-s9k]

Please make a tutorial on how to install PuLID on your computer.

[@tsentenari4353]

My (subjective) take-aways, judging by your examples:
PuLID cannot compare to the other two.
InstantID wins on integrating the face into the environment, and making it look Realistic.
FaceID wins on caputring the essence of face, if you don't worry about photorealistic shading too much.
Great work! Super useful to see all three of them in action with the same parameters, and be able to judge the result.
thx!!!!

Thanks for sharing your insights! It's great to hear your perspective on PuLID, InstantID, and FaceID. I'm glad you found the comparison useful. Thx for watching!

[@tsentenari4353]

LOVE your eplanation of the workflow logic of the comfyui workflow, makes it super easy to understand what's going on

[@my-ai-force]

Awesome, thank you!

[@alpaykasal2902]

Great test! Thank you!

[@my-ai-force]

My pleasure!

[@mattc3510]

Amazing videos, thank you so much

[@my-ai-force]

My pleasure😊

[@AnNguyen-pd2xi]

Great video! Can you make a video about how to install PulID? I've downloaded all the files and always fail. Can't figure out what step is missed.

[@GES1985]

I would love to see a video that compares models and loras, and a chart of which ones are best at which things.. some models suck at accurate face swap

[@user-yz7fl7mf8g]

Wow, I did not expect PulID to come last.

[@GES1985]

Which one will apply a straight forward face to a side facing face the best?

[@flyingdogsoft]

I wrote it to other videos as well - the license is the problem here but it is good that you point it out that user needs a license for commercial use. So far I know this is very expensive one. That means those three ones are quite useless at the moment. The InstantID team wanted to retrain without using Insightface. But that was 4 months ago and so far no progress. The only alternatives I know are: 1) IP Adapter using Face model (not Face-ID) or StableIdentity (It does not have ComfyUI nodes and is using weird SD 2.1 model). Any other alternatives out there?

[@WallyMahar]

Can you incorporate a move2Move workflow?

[@kocy33]

Scarlet really likes others using her likeness for ai so i herd ;) 😂 thanks for the comparsion video, really interesting.

[@my-ai-force]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@ryan_cha190]

I agree with you. InstantID is the best at similarity and detail.

[@wagmi614]

good job, just saw pulid repo has add v1.1 examples

[@my-ai-force]

Thanks for the heads-up! I'll check out the v1.1 examples in the pulid repo. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ismgroov4094]

this is wonderful ever

[@my-ai-force]

Thank you for the kind words

[@diggydretv]

InstantID looks the best but FaceID contains sharper details but seems more cartoonish for some reason. InstantID seems to at least try to keep some of the skin texture. I'm not chomping at the bit to get my hands on PuLID after seeing this. Thanks :)

[@alecubudulecu]

Yeah that’s because faceid is intended to copy the STYLE of a person’s image while defaulting to the base model trained data. Basically if you use faceid with a model that has cartoonish trained data … it’ll produce cartoon that looks “kinda” like the person. Mattheo went into this quite a bit and explained it. He even said it’s best to use a combo of both instant id and Face ID.

[@my-ai-force]

Good point!

[@ismgroov4094]

thx, sir

[@my-ai-force]

Most welcome

[@gu9838]

lol i like with all the controversy lately you use scarletts image lol nice

[@espedairsystems]

Better than an over use of musk

[@NeonSparks]

I'm getting so many python conflicts after getting pulid working. It's been an absolute nightmare fixing it
