P: (Mac) People masks selections are not as expected (Entire Screen or Square Area)

This was originally posted under "Bugs" but I really want this to be answered as a question. I will be happy to delete whichever post doesn't fit under the best category however! Thank you.

 

When using Lightroom Classic 12.2.1 with MacOS Ventura 13.3 (on a Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020 iMac with the AMD Radeon Pro 5700 XT 16 GB and 72 GB of memory)...


I am getting the entire image selected when I try to use the "Select People" then choosing "Entire Person." Lightroom Classic allows me to individually select the hair, teeth, eyes, etc. as usual but when trying to select the entire body, the whole screen gets turned pink to indicate that the Lightroom thinks that the whole picture is the person.

I've attached two (redacted for privacy) screenshots of the "Subject" masking that still works as it should and the "Entire Person" mask that shows where the entire photo area has been selected incorrectly by the AI.

Anybody have any thoughts? Thanks!

I am suffering the same problem and I have pretty much the same system as the original post.
2020 iMac
3.8 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i7
AMD Radeon Pro 5700 8 GB
os 13.4.1

I used to be able to perform the Adobe mask magic on groups of people in bulk for our shoots! Now I have to manually mask in both LR and Camera Raw crushing my productivity!

Any follow up on this?! Its ALMOST there, it does everything for me except the body skin. It still selects the whole image, and every option is good except the body skin. Its been like what 3 or 4 months now?

Can you post your system settings, this helps Adobe to narrow down the issue!

just updated to 12.4, while clicking the "select person" Option does turn the whole photo red (for a mask) I am able to force it to select face and body skin and it does a decent job of selecting people.  Its almost there but not quite.

The evidence indicates this is a bug in the Mac OS graphics driver for the Radeon 5700 cards. While fixing the driver is out of Adobe's control, this is another instance where LR could let you work around Apple/Radeon's bug by providing an option that lets you disable the use of the GPU for AI masking:

Masking would run about 4x slower but still be useable. LR lets you disable every other use of the GPU, but not for AI masking -- it mystifies me.
