Generative Fill with Photoshop 2025 update (Oct '24, v 26.0) producing oversharpened results?

Hi, I have the same issue. I am a portrait photographer and use generative fill mostly to naturally retouch hair and skin. I never type a prompt, I just press enter. I have sporadically gotten weird result, but over all it has been fantastic and drastically improved my work, the success rate was very very high but just clicking enter, no matter what. I have adapted my workflow to the prior results and although it takes a bit longer due to the need for an internet connection compared to older ways of editing, this is my state of the art.

Since I updated to Version 26.0.0 I get super weird results. A pencil on a forehead when I just wanted to remove a little hair. Oversharpened artefacts when trying to smooth out skin. Writing under the eyes when removing dark circles. What is wrong here? I was so super super happy with this feature, was actually thinking about giving courses on how to use this tool for portrait retouching, because I had mastered it flawlessly and it seemed most of my co-photographers were not so aware of this tool for simple retouching. At the moment I just keep wondering what the hell is wrong with the AI all of the sudden. The success rate dropped to maybe than 10% now, often zero and I need to restart many times. I am so very frustrated.

Look at this example: I wanted to remove the shadow on the skin cast from the glasses. Instead, I got a mother with her baby. I get that these kind of generations make sense when I put in a prompt like "mother with a baby". But uhm, I was taught by Photoshop that I should not put in a prompt when I want to remove something. This doesn't work anymore and it's a tragedy for my work.
