A short demo of interactive AI live painting in Krita using the Stable Diffusion plugin, where canvas changes update the generated image immediately. It uses an LCM sampler for speed and needs a high-end GPU for the interactive feel.
HN points to it as a demonstration of local, controllable AI painting and a way to learn the workflow.

It's a little bit more work to set up, but I'd recommend Krita with diffusion if you want to get into this. Runs locally, swap exact checkpoints you want to use, supports poseable controlnets, and it doesn't phone home to mommy Microsoft. [LINK] Video demonstration this video

You're creating something for someone, what's the point if they don't value your carefully crafted message and want kitsch instead? > Are we expected to be impressed by speed or quality? Realtime generation in particular makes 3D rendering in the viewport and live painting possible. [1] This kind of tooling makes a lot of difference. What you make with it, either kitsch or something worthwhile, is up to you. [1] this video
Yes exactly. There are some written guides now but I actually just learned from the original demonstration videos. Copied what happened there and started tinkering around Most of the times if something didn't work for me that was mostly because my lack of knowledge about Krita [LINK] [LINK] this video
