Question

AI drop shadow

An Adobe support person helped me remove the background from subject. Along the way and last couple of steps he utilized AI and went to invert subject. I lost next steps but as a result he created automatically a shadow around the subject that turned out quite nice. Can anyone help with those last steps?

Perhaps a layer style?

The transparency was created using Select > Select Subject perhaps with a layer mask, or perhaps using the "Remove Background" command etc. These are AI-trained selections (Adobe Sensei).

 

I'm not aware of an "AI" drop shadow though, I am guessing that a Layer > Layer Style menu command was applied to the layer's transparency:

Probably using Drop Shadow, and or perhaps adding Outer Glow using black and multiply blend mode as well.
