Ai Denoise Distorting Photos

Question

I have been using Ai Denoise on Lightroom for a while now. Most recently, I ran into an issue where after the photo has gone through denoise, it will distort the photo and turn it either green, pink, or sometimes mash another photo with the photo I am currently working on. It makes the photo completly unusable, as it fully distorts the image. I switched computers thinking it might have been the device, but it continutes to do it on either device. Additionally, it gives a message to update Ai settings, but when I press that button it has me denoise again, creating a loop of the same distorted image popping up. This has happened in the past with an occacional photo every once in a while, but now it has turned into most every photo this happens to. Now my computer can't denoise anything.

Any thoughts?

Hi @mw_photo, welcome to the community!The distortion and color issues you’re seeing may be related to your GPU, so it’s a good idea to make sure your graphics drivers are fully up to date. For the “Update AI settings” message, you can follow this recommended order of AI operations to get the best results and avoid unexpected behavior:1. HDR2. Denoise, Raw Details, Super Resolution3. Reflections Removal4. Distracting People Removal5. Generative Expand (currently in Camera Raw as a Tech Preview)6. Generative Remove, Content-Aware Remove, Heal, and Clone7. Lens Blur8. Lens Profile9. Crop and Transform10. Adaptive Profiles11. Global Adjustments12.MaskingIf updating the GPU driver and following the workflow above doesn’t help, feel free to share a few screenshots along with your system info. You can find that in Lightroom under Help then System Info. Just copy it into a text file and attach it here, or share it through Google Drive, WeTransfer, or any file-sharing service that works for you.Thanks a lot!Alek
