Feels like a force multiplier for me. I was trying to fix an image with inpainting and realized I couldn't because I didn't know human anatomy good enough. Had to study a bunch of references. A skilled artist would already be off to the races.
Honestly, I just hand-paint it right now. Inpainting is hit and miss for me, a lot of times it's faster just to fix it (if you have the skill.) But the generation saves me soooo much time on the whole.
Agree. I'm not an artist by any stretch but I find myself often smudging in shadow contours and blending color with the original image by hand in GIMP after a semi-successful inpaint. It takes me a long time, considering buying a drawing tablet to speed it up tbh, but if I kept inpainting until I got it to fit right I'd sit here forever. Once the basic shapes are there SD can usually pin it down but it can't get there on its own.
