Trying to use the generative ai remove tool to remove a road (off in the distance) surrounded by green hills. I highlight the road, click apply, and the ai gives me three other road options that I could replace it with......
Face palm.
ai needs to take it's cues from the surrounding areas, not the areas selected to be removed!

Most complaints about Remove are addressed in the article. But if it doesn't help, please attach a full-resolution JPEG exported from the unmodified original photo, so we and Adobe can see the issue in detail. With nearly everyone who has posted a problem photo, we've been able to show how to remove the desired objects.

Lightroom directed me here to provide feedback for the remove ai. So I assumed this was were we left feedback regarding the remove ai. I don't need assistance.

Your comment suggested you weren't aware of the tips necessary to get Remove to actually remove an object rather than replace it with something similar. But if you used those techniques and they didn't help remove the object, then posting a full-resolution JPEG exported from the unmodified photo will help Adobe understand where the tool is falling down.

I don't agree with your order for editing. I'd think that crop would be first.

Adobe recommends that Remove be applied before cropping (see their recommended order of edits in the first post). The Remove tool looks at all the pixels of the uncropped photo, so if you select just the part of an object visible in the crop and leave parts of it unselected in the uncropped portion, Remove will generate a replacement that best matches the unselected bits. This is one of the common causes of the complaint, it "replaces instead of removes". See this article for a more thorough explanation with examples:

In general I do NOT want to use generative AI. I prefer content aware. Then it is using pixels that I created, not ones from someone else's photo.

Not intuitive or simple and doesn't work very well if at all. Sosemwhat confusing. Photoshop removal tool is much easier and simpler to use. I'd give this app a D-.

Have had issues with Generative AI selecting an area outside the photo, leading to either no replacement, or a gray patch over the selected area. When trying to select a corner that has vignetting from a filter that gets in the way (Yes I have tried all of the "Ultra Thin" filters, this lens always gives a vignette with any filter on it.), the results are minimal or LR selects an area outside the box as described above. Cannot move the selection inside to the actual photo, and switching to another form of Remove yields the same results. Have to delete the selection and reselect with the new tool.
