I am very doubtful if photo AI will work with Gimp. As Ofnuts mentioned there is a plugin 'shellout'. No need to go into the basics, it is used by the Partha compiled Gimp http://www.partha.com for various older Topaz filters, if you have them installed, but not for photo AI.
I have downloaded the the trial photo AI (700 MB installer) and installed with much downloading from Topaz, an installation that is only 1.2 GB - bloat
From the photo AI desktop shortcut I can see what executable that calls. Not working here, I can see it calling home, internet activity, nothing happens, probably my Win10 VM is not compatible, not able to test anything.
You can try the attached, a modified Partha plugin. Unzip and put TopazPhotoAI.py in your plugins folder. It registers in the Filters menu. Might / might-not work.
Do not complain if it does not work, pay your $199 for Topaz and probably $20 / month for PS.
You might want to look at the Gimp gmic plugin http://www.gmic.eu which has some good filters for de-noising up-scaling but certainly not Quote from Topaz "Maximize your image quality on AutoPilot" - no comment.
