This is a plugin for Krita that uses AI to fill and expand a selected area when you want to edit just a part of an image.

3-Line Summary

1) It fills and expands the selected area in the Krita drawing program using AI. 2) Import the plugin ZIP file into Krita to install it. 3) It’s great for editing just a portion of an image with AI, and there are comments saying people have seen real-time drawing with a 4090 graphics card.

With 8 iterations per image, that’s about 4 images per second, so real-time AI drawing is possible. Once you get the image you want, run it again 30–50 times to refine it."

Points to Note

If your graphics card isn't powerful enough, the process may be very slow or fail due to insufficient memory. There is also a cloud-based option, but I haven't checked the pricing, so please check the official website at https://www.interstice.cloud first.
