Inpainting in Stable Diffusion refers to a technique used for modifying or repairing specific parts of an image using artificial intelligence. This process involves generating new content to fill in missing, damaged, or undesired areas of an image while maintaining a coherent and visually appealing result.
Using an image as input for inpainting techniques can yield impressive results and provide greater control over the final composition. If you have a high-quality image with a minor defect, inpainting enables you to create a mask and seamlessly alter that specific area.
