Beyond generating from scratch, AI offers img2img (transform existing images) and inpainting (edit specific areas).
Key takeaways:
- img2img transforms images while keeping composition
- Inpainting edits specific zones without affecting the rest
- Perfect for improving photos and fixing details
- Complements text-to-image generation
What Is img2img
Takes an existing image and transforms it according to a prompt. Denoising strength controls change level: 0.3 = subtle, 0.7 = radical. Great for converting sketches, changing styles, upscaling.
What Is Inpainting
Select a zone and regenerate only that part. Like a “smart eraser”: remove objects, change backgrounds, add elements, fix hands or textures.
