P: Generative Remove Feedback (Lr Classic & Lr Eco)

[Rikk Flohr: Photography]

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!

As @John R Ellis said the models used by Photoshop and ACR are the same; in CR they run on RAW data.

But Generative Fill is vastly superior in Ps.

. In Ps we can type instructions.

. In Ps we can feather the fill/selection.

. In Ps we can movw the fill without triggering a refresh, which allows users to place it better...I fixed this in LrC using the SDK but due to lack of feathering it doens't work well.

. In Ps we can generate many variations without loosing the ones we have already.

. In Ps we can copy and paste the Genrative Remove to other images as it is (John has implemeted this in his Plug-in "Copy Settings" but Adobe doesn't allow it)

. In Ps we can erase part of the variation without losing it : refine subtracting in LrC is simply horrible.

. In Ps variations are presented as thumbnails which is better for usability.

.

Gnrative fill is handicapped and vastly less usable in LrC than in Photoshop.

It's not a good port IMO.

TLDR. - Photoshop generative AI works way better than the LrC
