is it possible to use AI to scale images on webpages? #6

instead of only when downloading a single image - is it possible to use AI to scale all images on the website? or is technology not that far yet?

It is possible but it will take a long time to run on a webpage depending on how many images there are.

How long is a "long time" exactly? if it's not hours but minutes - that'd still be very worth it for webcomics or just some lazy browsing of image sites with small thumbnails

Long time meaning maybe 1 min per image possibly. Also depending on the webpage, it can block other images from other sites. Other solutions is to convert it to text but that might lag the browser and use even more memory. There is a newer version of this plugin i am working on where I use the device gpu and a local server to use the gpu on pc to do it instead of the website, but that also breaks if foreign urls are not allowed.
