Do I need to "enable" AI in Lightroom?

Hello,

 

I'm trying to make use of the AI feature in Lightroom - simply to remove an object.

 

I'm clicking the Heal -> Content Aware Removal. ....  but when I click the object it isn't analysing anything and just selects the spot I clicked.

Do I need to enable something?

 

Lightroom 12.5 (M1 Pro).

 

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I've tried searching but no joy.

This is not a tool with object selection. It is a brush, so you need to brush over the entire area you want to remove.

Thanks... but I'm confused because I'vew found articules / videos showing that Lightroom can automatically select the object: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QQ9NVxHcQ0

Ah hang, ignore me. I see now that it isn't actually automateically selecting just that object - it's selecting the object and surrounding area. 

 

Thank you for your help!
