# esdx_chainsaw

This is a concept-erased Stable Diffusion model using the **Exact Source Distillation (ESD-X)** method to remove the concept **"Chainsaw"**.

## Method

Exact Source Distillation (ESD-X) erases concepts by distilling knowledge while excluding specific concept representations.

## Usage

```python
from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline
import torch

pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("ErasureResearch/esdx_chainsaw", torch_dtype=torch.float16).to("cuda")
prompt = "a photo of a chainsaw"
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]
image.save("erased_chainsaw.png")
```
