Generative AI Remove produces two distinct types of content. One type REPLACES a selected object in the photo with some other object. For example, replaces a person with some other person or replaces the person with a dog or mailbox. The other type REMOVES the selected object and fills in the vacated space with content that seems to be derived from the same image with the idea of showing what a reasonalbe person would believe would have been seen had that object not been present when the photo was originallty taken (content aware remove does similar but no where near as well). In most traditional representational photography (landscape, travel, family, portrait, nature, etc.), the later case is the desired one.
What this tool needs is a selecton where the user can indicate if they want their selected object REPLACED by a different object or if they want their selected object REMOVED by having background type content inserted into the vacated space.

Absolutely spot on. The seemingly random nature of whether you are going to get some object replace the one you are removing is the biggest failure of the Generative Remove feature both in Lightroom and Photoshop. A command to instruct the software to either replace the object with something else, or with the background that would have been there behind and around the object being removed is the one major missing feature in the whole Generative Remove / Replace feature. In essence it is brilliant but in practice it can be very annoying and at times totally unusable.

From my breif testing of it its really good, however I would like to see multiple options like how Photoshop does it in case it doesnt get it right the first time

Including the generative erase in Lightroom Classic was a huge benefit to me as I use this feature to clean up small distractions in images all the time. The older tools were very rudimentary and were fine for spots and small objects. I had to export my images to Photoshop and use this tool there. The one in Lightroom now works as good as the one in photoshop and saves me time having to go back and forth. Thank you!

Me gusto mucho las actualizaciones.
Pensando a futuro para unas proximas actualizaciones seria un "BOOM" tener en lightroom la opcion de enfoque artificial, para algunas fotos desenfocadas que querramos enfocarlas y asi recuperarlas. Graxias por todo

Generative Remove works well, but for myself, I just want it to remove objects and replace it with the background that was already there. Too many times, it tries to replace the object I am trying to remove with some random object. I almost always just want an object removed, so perhaps a command stating whether you want it removed and background filled where the object was versus remove and replace with some other object would be a welcome addition.

It's incredibly useful, though clearly needs refinement. It took 4 attempts to fully remove a mid greyish pattern from a light blue background. Look forward to its continuing development. Amazing as l come from the world when we only had Photoshop 4!

Adobe has advised that Generative Remove as 'Earl Access' to indicate that it's still 'work in progress'. They've also provided this thread for customers to provide feedback. In most cases text is sufficient, but in others a screenshot showing how/where Generative Remove failed would be helpful. Can you provide a screenshot?

just started useing today and works good, but removing a home in the tree line on a marsh land photo on nikon nef file 'not edited' the results are very good 'BUT' appling "denoise" on this file the resaulting DNG has seem to attempt to reconstruct the home in a somewhat haphazard way?

@Rikk Flohr: Photography addressed this type of problem arlier in thread as folLows:
"This is the preferred order: Denoise - Heal(Including Gen Remove)- Crop/Edit - AI Selective edits"

Is it really the case that in the current heal and clone stamp modes, you can't reposition the reference points of a healing spot anymore?
Right now, I can still reposition the area I want to heal but not its reference area. It's a bit of a bummer since I can't clone stamp essentially because I can't choose what I want to clone. I can only rely on the refresh button wherein I'll hope and pray Lightroom hits my desired reference area but I can't set it manually as I can't drag the reference area at all.
Or perhaps am I missing a new shortcut key that I need to press in order to do that?

Update on this. So I did an "Edit in Photoshop" in one of the RAW photo in my catalog. Surprisingly, in the PSD from that, I was able to reposition the reference area as usual, but it still won't work on my RAW photo when I returned to it.

Another update:
It looks like the repositioning of the reference area of the heal/clone stamp doesn't work when my files are still in CR3 format, but it somehow works when they're in some other format, like PSD or DNG. I hope this helps.

The welcome removal tool is incredible. I think that the selection of objects or subjects is still not as refined as in PS, that is, it should be more precise at the edges. And just like in PS, passing the pointer over the object will automatically highlight the selection. It would also be important if we could add additional selections. Another important aspect would be a background fill tool.

en algunos casos en vez de hacer que desparezca el objeto, detecta qué objeto es y en vez de quitarlo pone otro distinto y no hay manera de que lo haga desaparecer

You need to esnure that the entire area/object to be removed, which includes shadows and projections is masked. See attached screenshot.

Retrait d'un lampadaire sur fond de ciel et à proximité de la tête d'une personne.
La sélection est en deux parties, réalisée en utilisant la fonctionnalité "ajouter".
Seule la première partie est traitée. Aucun résultat sur la deuxième (quelque soit l'une des trois propositions)
Le lampadaire disparaît (seulement sur l'une des trois itérations) mais l'IA maintient sa forme en prenant la tonalité la plus claire du ciel.
La partie sur la tête de la personne n'est pas respectée. Voici le résultat.
Les deux autres propositions maintiennent le lampadaire à sa place en modifiant sa forme, un exemple ci-dessous.

My other concern re its development so far is it softens the selected area a little too much. This can work sometimes if the area is within a less focused area of the frame

Good start, but we can see the edges of the modification like a sort of shadow. Photoshop remains more efficient.

Let us give brief and prompt on the remove, because i tried to remove a wire from a wedding shot, and instead of removing them, it changed the look of it. And before AI it was grey, after the process it became red. 😄 (all 3 variations, tried multiple times). So it just made it worse. But happy that LRC got this feature. Keep up
