People are already talking about plugins.
The documentation is getting ready. There is already ML plugins available, which we hope to be ready by GIMP 3.0 stable

Here are the GIMP ML AI plugins for GIMP 3.0
More and more AI plugins are gonna come
The CMYK support for print design is one of the biggest highlights of v3.0.
A lot of people asked for CMYK while GIMP had only sRGB in v2.10.
GIMP 3.0 Release Candidate 1 is getting ready.

Making whatever contribution I can do from my side

They missed the milestone for RC1 release. Around 70% complete in that milestone. I would assume another 3 months before GIMP 3.0 stable comes out.
There is a good chance that GIMP 3.0 will offer official an AppImage. The team is already using the AppImages format for testing development builds.
They are currently looking for people who like to contribute to the process. If it works, if they can find enough volunteers who can maintain an official GIMP 3.0 AppImage for Linux, users will have an option other than Flatpak.
The GIMP team is currently usingthe tool go-appimage to build development app images for testing.
Ubuntu users, remember that you will have to add libfuse as Ubuntu does not support AppImages out of the box since a while. I have however successfully used them on Ubuntu 24.04 " Noble Numbat " and 22.04.
They are fastly closing in on open issues. I think RC1 will be out soon. This month? I really think so.
Get AI for free in GIMP through OpenVINO by Intel
The process is a bit lengthy, especially if you are on Linux, but if works, you can upscale, inpaint, text to image, image to image and more using this plugin for GIMP 2.99 /3.0.
GIMP 3.0 RC1 is almost here. 96% complete
There are a total of 11 issues remaining. 5 are unassigned though.
I hope they will be able to release it this year. GIMP 3.0 had many advantages that were being expected for a long time.
Good news, the popular Resynthesizer plugin for GIMP is getting ready for v3.0
For those looking for AI in GIMP, v 3.0 has a lot of options.
They say RC1 is just a day away. I am already seeing screenshot of GIMP with 3.0 RC1.
The milestone for 3.0 RC1 expires on November 3 2024.
