This post applies to Lightroom Classic and the Lightroom Ecosystem products.

Camera Raw feedback can be found here.

Generative Remove makes it easier to remove unwanted objects and distractions with a simple gesture, even on complex backgrounds. For more accurate results, be sure to include the object's shadow in your selection and/or expand its size.

Detect Objects uses AI to find the objects underneath a brushed area. The masked areas will now appear larger than the Early Access version of this feature. You can also circle objects for quicker selection now.

We have also updated the spot selection experience to make it easier to manage variations, switch the fill type, refine the selection area, or re-generate as needed.

Batch updating is also now supported for Generative Remove spots.

Try out the latest updates and share your feedback with us here. Please also include the following details in your post:

App version
System details
Example image(s) if you wish to share

Our team continually monitors this thread to track issues for future improvement. Thanks!

I am still getting ghosting after removing objects. My Lightroom is fully up to date and I have tried the updating masks button, still see the ghosting of the object I removed.

1. Please post a full-resolution screenshot of the entire LR window in Develop showing the problem.

2. Please do the LR menu command Help > System Info, click the Copy button in the upper right corner, and paste into your reply here, so we can see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running and important LR options that are set.

@ANASTASIS Generate remove does not work at all today.

It’s currently working on my LRC 15.3 Mac and Windows. Please provide more detail about what’s not working. If you see an error message, please post a full-resolution screenshot (not a phone pic).

I’ve a case where I’m using generative remove, the result looks acceptable when in Develop module but when I click back to Library the edges of the repair are incorrect.

I’ve already checked that there are no outstanding AI edit status items that need updating.

The attachments show

the before/after (so you can see what I’m removing)
then the Develop module after the fix (showing reasonable result)
then the Library module after the fix (showing the edges being weird)
then the same image as synchronised to Lr mobile (it’s the same as the Library module view)

Useful to know: Photoshop cannot detect the blurred washing lines but will remove them perfectly using the Remove Tool.

I would appreciate if the function Generative AI worked even after the image is transformed, e.g., this image was vertically transformed and I cannot generate any content in the blank corners because the program does not consider this as “part of the image”. It only highlights the area of the original photo. Otherwise, I consider the tool to be very helpful. Best Regards, Petr.

I join the other voices—this tool does whatever it wants. It struggles to recreate anything useful when it removes people.

this tool is always a huge hit or miss, it either amazes me in the fact it got something right for once or amazes me because how is the @#$@#$ it it add a faucet and handles that don’t do anything to an image that already had some and I didn’t want it to edit them anyways… I can dump this in to any other AI tool and it fix what I need no issues but some how the leader in graphic arts tools can’t manage to get this right. now I will say this… if I export it from light room to photoshop it does a better job overall but still not great.

I never use the LR generative remove tool, even the heal tool isn’t working properly. I have to open everything in PS and edit there. I have a white background with one minor smudge, I click remove and it is still there. The remove tool doesn’t remove anything, it only re-shapes it. The heal tool does not recognize that all the space around it is also white, it chooses instead to sample from the subject, so I get a random eye or nose on the white backdrop.

So, I’ve come to notice.

Generative Remove needs to work on improving its ‘correction ability’ AI software on identifying fabrics. The texture isn’t consistent and doesn’t match with the original fabric.

Generative Remove still doesn’t work reliably.

After years of feedback from users here and across the forums, I expected this to be resolved by now - especially since it worked back in 2024.

Please, take a look at that. I’d really appreciate it if this could finally be addressed, as it has a major impact on everyday workflow.
