If I have a large dataset or photos with my face? Can I generate my own images in different places and environments using this?

Yep. Lora's are the easiest way to go. Loads of tutorials on Youtube. This is a good one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70H03cv57-o

Looks like it requires good hardware to run this? My GPU is too old for this.

You typically want an Nvidia GPU with at least 8GB of VRAM to get started with this stuff. You can get away with less, but it will be slow going. More VRAM is better.

If you're serious about learning how to use these tools, it's far more affordable to rent a GPU in the cloud. Google Colab even has some free tiers with limited access to GPUs that are significantly more powerful than what you would normally put in a desktop.

Thanks for the advice, I’ll look into the option of renting a gpu sadly.

I just want to create my own images like Dall-e 2 but using my face instead.
