@Nichole Haun: "Seemed great until i went to export, all corrections were gone they all say "some remove settings need to be updated", so a days worth of editing is wasted... "
The corrections aren't gone -- LR has just decided the AI needs to be recomputed. Select the photos and in Library, do Photo > Develop Settings > Update AI Settings. Any photos that don't need updating will be skipped.

Garbage - removes nothing and all of the artifacts left by previous brush attempts just clog up the space. I pay $21.00 a month and this is what Adobe gives me. The instructions on the Adobe site are the usual clear as mud too.

@imikeh61: "I wanted to remove the yellow leaf and replace it with the white siding below but that simply didn't work."
With Object Aware checked, I selected the entire yellow leaf, and Remove added a boundary around it to the selection, resulting it in it being replaced by the white siding:

Is anybody else experiencing a slowdown in Lightroom Classic after installing the update with Generative Remove? I find it noticeably slower, but wondered whether it had anything to do with another program that linked to Lightroom (DXO Raw), that crashed on me and so I uninstalled it. I have however uninstalled and reinstalled LRC hoping to fix any software issues, but with no improvement in response times. Before I did the latest updated, LRC response time was fast. Thanks,

Generative AI has been disgnated as 'Early Access'. As such, any credits used as part of your edits carry no cost.

I do like the feature - it seems way more accurate than the old healing (or PS spot healing tools) on many occasions.
However, the Metadata logging seems somewhat off, as I have a few photos marked from the LR filters (Library panel) as edited using AI technology, which I edited the last time way before AI was available in LR. Looking into those spots where I used the healing tool, these are clearly marked as not being healed by Generative Remove. Thus images might get flagged for (excessive) use of AI, which were never touched by AI in the first place.
Hope this can be adjusted in a future fix.

The Content-Aware Remove tool from LrC 12.x uses AI technology, albeit based solely on the pixels within the image. Therefore, any images edited using that tool will be flagged as having AI.

@Wiebke37888945kwnw, "I have a few photos marked from the LR filters (Library panel) as edited using AI technology, which I edited the last time way before AI was available in LR."
There are two filter/smart criteria, Has AI Mask and Has AI Remove. Which one was given wrong results?
"Hope this can be adjusted in a future fix."
I tested these against a couple of my catalogs and didn't observe the bad results. Adobe won't pay any attention unless a very large number of people complain or a formal bug report is submitted from which Adobe can reproduce the problem:

Hi @johnrellis,
Thanks for your reply 😊
I used the Has AI Remove Filter, however, considering @Ian Lyons' reply the old healing tool might be flagged as AI as well.

That tool was formerly called Content-Aware Remove and did indeed use AI technology, as Ian explained. You can still access it by clicking the same Remove icon and unchecking Generative AI and Object Aware:

I was referring to the Content-Aware Remal tool introduced in LrC 12 (October 2022 - https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/lightroom-classic/help/whats-new/2023.html), not the old heal tool. I've highlighted the Content-Aware Removal tool in the attached screenshot. It uses AI technology, but the model is restricted to using the pixels within the image.

LR used ambiguous terminology in 13.3 and earlier. The top bandaid button was called "Healing", and the Help calls it "Healing Mode":
The bottom bandaid button was called "Heal", and was one of three Heal Types according to the help or one of three Heal Modes according to the user interface:

I was having trouble with using the remove feature, but this morning I reset everything in the Remove portion of the menu. Then once again checked only the box for Generative AI and my results are stellar today. I even looked through all three of the ones generated and it was usually the first one that did the trick.

Good news that you resolved whatever the issue was causing bad results.

Have a look at below linked tutorial. It demonstrates how to use the tool to remove rather than replace.

I think this function would dramastically benefit, if it would include an option to choose whether I want to erase an object, or replace it. Other than that, It is sufficiently satisfying with its results.

But it's always replacing!! The question is with what.

Ian, I understand. However, isn't the tool ALWAYS replacing something? If you do the selection on a person correctly, it will not replace it with another person....however, it will replace it with a newly created background. The key is, I thing, understanding how the AI tool was trained to determine which path to take.

Yes, technically, the tool is always replacing the selected area with generated imagery. But in common usage by non-engineers, it's intuitive to use the term "remove" to mean replacing a visually distinct object by background or imagery that we don't perceive as a foreground object, and to use the term "replace" to mean substituting a new generated object for the selected object.
With this understanding of the terms, the help article gives useful advice about how to use the tool to remove instead of replace.

I agree to the 'KISS' principle. However, even for "non-engineers", I would think it helpful to understand that the process is the same...and the masking process, as show so well in the article, is set to instruct the AI process in what to replace it with.....but maybe I'm being to logical and not 'artistic' enough 😀
