Building with AI

Building with AI I bridge people and machines. I’m building secure, local AI systems from the ground up. Focused on real-world utility, privacy, and performance. Always learning.

No shortcuts. Let’s push what’s possible—with tools that respect your control.

I’m curious how many people here are using ComfyUI or Automatic1111 to build their own AI image/video workflows.

For the newer users:
Are you designing your own workflows from scratch, modifying existing ones, or mostly using prebuilt workflows?

I’m especially interested in how difficult the learning curve has been for you.

Was it overwhelming at first?
Did the node-based setup in ComfyUI make sense after a while?
For anyone using Automatic1111, does it feel easier to work with compared to building node workflows?

What part gave you the most trouble: models, prompts, LoRAs, ControlNet, video workflows, missing nodes, settings, or just understanding what everything does?

I’ve been experimenting with ComfyUI workflows myself, but I haven’t personally used Automatic1111 much, so I’m curious how both sides compare from people who have actually worked with them.

I’m not really trying to start a “which one is better” debate. I’m more interested in what helped people actually learn and stick with it.

Drop your thoughts below. I’d like to hear what actually helped you get comfortable.
