So the api used for inpainting is very easily swappable to a local instance. But when you say consumer hardware, I think you might be overestimating how capable most people’s computing setups are.
There may be a point when that's not the case, but at present this stuff will run on hardware accessible to a consumer, assuming they're ok waiting a bit.
yea for sure. i guess i'd like this to be something usable on mobile as well. but directionally you're right. there's a lot to be gained from optimizing for local compute in many applications. something to look into.

Isn't that to a degree a function of time?
