StableDiffusionWebUI: Embeddings
Preface
Embeddings and text inversion both refer to textual embeddings.
They can be simply understood as a collection of prompts,
used in both negative and positive prompts.
Using Embeddings
Installation
After downloading embeddings, place them in the stable-diffusion-webui/embeddings directory.
Usage
Under the embeddings tab, select the embedding you want to use and click on it.
It will automatically populate the embedding into the positive or negative prompt field.
If newly added embeddings don’t appear in the list,
click the refresh button on the right side.

Embeddings - Negative Effect
The above demonstrates using embeddings as positive prompts.
In practice, using embeddings as positive prompts has become less common,
since other methods can achieve similar or better results.
A more common use of embeddings is as negative prompts.
For example, the hands in the images above have issues. Let’s try some hand-related negative prompt embeddings
and see the results.

Summary
Embeddings are currently mainly used as negative prompts
to avoid undesirable artifacts in generated images.
