Yes, the article explains what Control Net is for those of us who haven't heard of it before. And the article says that Control Net was (apparently) initially meant to be used for qr codes.

Sorry to be indirect - ControlNet is a Stable Diffusion tool that generally allows for generating images with input control frames. The QR code use-case was a single potential use that went viral.

I was just eye-rolling a bit over the expert in the article also not understanding what ControlNet is, since it's propagating an incorrect history.
