Subject/Person masking tool always gives square mask

Whenever  I use the newly introduced person masking tool, or manually select a a subject with the brush, Lightroom only gives me a big, square box.

 

Did I set something wrong or is this a bug on Lighroom's end?

 

Here's an example of using the automatic "person masking" tool


<Changed to Windows>

    Looks like your GPU drivers need an update.

    Yes, I accidentally selected MacOS but I'm on Windows.

     

    @JohanElzenga suggestion worked. Thanks to you 🙂

    You've selected the Mac OS Token according to your initial post and then later say that is Windows.  Assuming Windows - Johan's suggestion is correct. The fault lies with your GPU Driver.

    I forgot to add some details:

    • Lightroom Version Number: v6.2 
    • OS Version Number: Windows 11 Home (Build 22621)

     

    Expected result would be a more finegrained selection of the subject/person.
