It’s so awesome that I can let my kid paint with Krita and let her enhance the picture with AI live. She wanted to have an AI picture editor on her phone but I didn’t like the privacy policy. But Krita AI Diffusion came to the rescue.

After testing it out myself I showed her Krita, the most important tools and how to use layers and before I could say anything she was off to paint a nice landscape. When she was finished I actually got to enable the AI plugin and show her the ropes around that. And after enabling live painting she went ham and added a phoenix and a giant hand.

Hardest thing about it was that she had to describe what she wanted in English. But she’s already learning that in school so it shouldn’t give her too much trouble in the long run.

Anyways, FOSS rules!

    This is the caveat for me for now.

    To run locally a powerful graphics card with at least 6 GB VRAM is recommended. Otherwise generating images will take very long!

    I’ve got decent RAM on an I9, but my graphics card, which is what matters here, isn’t up to par.

      Yeah. Took me several days to set it up with the AMD card on my gaming rig. I also tried to run it on a Steam Deck but I gave that up. As it says, using the CPU is possible but painfully slow.
