Like the rest of the world, I've been playing around with AI generated art. In my case, I've been using Stable Diffusion UI. Stable Diffusion UI is an easy to install variation of Stable Diffusion that also includes a GUI. I was able to get it running on both Windows and Linux without too much effort. The easy install was what appealed to me the most though I have been using the GUI as well. It's been a while so I don't know how things have changed but the original version of Stable Diffusion could be a pain to get up and working sometimes.
To get reasonably fast results you need a decent GPU. However, you don't actually need a GPU at all to use Stable Diffusion UI, as long as you are willing to wait a while. If you don't have a GPU, each image will take a much longer time to produce as the CPU is much less efficient for this sort of work than a GPU. It can take thirty minutes or even much longer depending on your specific hardware and the settings you use. However, this is open source software so you can generate as many images as you want without having to sign up for anything or paying a subscription fee. The end result is that even with limited hardware, you can still produce as many images as you want as long as you are patient.
I've been generating a lot of steampunk images. Some turn out well, some don't, some are subtle in their steampunk theme, some are not. I've included two images here. Despite a steampunk themed prompt, these don't have anything easily identifiable as "steampunk" about them, however I still thought they turned out to be interesting. Both are pretty creepy looking with the second one having a strange figure in the background.
