P: AI "Select Window mask" option in Lightroom Classic (for real estate)

The automatic "Select Object" tool is currently quite unreliable. It often fails to accurately detect simple, distinct objects — especially windows, which are a key area for HDR editing. Manually brushing around windows for exposure adjustments is very time-consuming, especially in architectural or interior photography. It would be extremely helpful to have a dedicated tool or AI model trained specifically to detect and mask windows, or at least a better edge-detection assist when doing manual selections.

In architectural and real estate photography, I find that doing a series of images (Bracketing -2, 0 and +2 exposure) and processing those as HDR in Lightroom Classic works very well. In extreme condidions it might require -3 and +3 on the brackets. Have you tried that?

For my architectural photos, and even some portraits, I am constantly trying to bring back in window exposures without changing the entire image.. I think it's great LR has added an easy sky mask, but a window mask similar to the sky mask, would be life changing! I know there are tons of tricks for this, and HDR, but I don't always want to do this or switch over to photoshop. LMK if you agree. XO

I's relatively easy to make a named standard mask (with more than one subselection) and then apply this with preset. Such as, an auto luminance based selection that concentrates only on the brightest tones. And separately, intersected with this, a brush mask 'layer' initially empty. You could include standard darkening adjustment as a starting point.

What I have in mind is: apply the preset adding mask(s) to your photo. Then activate the brush 'layer' and looely paint your window area with a big brush. The darker surround of an over-bright window would automatically be excluded from selection anyway, by the luminance "layer" so your painting of the window would not need to be carefully done. Overall, I expect the amount of work would be little different - once all steps are considered.
