The recommended order for applying edits is:

You need to ensure that the connected shadows are removed otherwise the model will put something in to cause the shadow. I've attached a screenshot of your image with the selection/mask shown and pole gone.

Handy tool, I'm glad you've added this into Lightroom Classic instead of having to open photoshop for each of these edits. I would recommend "subtract" being the default option rather than add.

Very usefull, but if the object in some big it doesn't remove just remplace. Waiting the final version looking foward for it.

I love this but it crashes now 100% of the time I use "Remove" with Generative AI unchecked - so now I can ONLY use Generative AI.

Very disappointed. I was hoping it would save me going into Photoshop to use the remove tool there which is excellent and gives me what I want 95% of the time on the first go. I have tried to get rid of an overhanging branch using the new AI remove tool 17 times now and the branch or parts of it are still there.

Marche tres bien pour remplacer, mais je n'arrive pas a supprimer une personne ou un objet d'une photo, j'ai pourtant utilise toutes les options ...

After a little bit of practice time I used this tool very often (let´s say 80% !) directly in LRc instead of switching to PS. What I would like to have changed in the final version is to use only the "red colour" for designing the mask instead of the "white line" (it´s too bold for me - with the "red colour" like in PS or when using "improvement of the mask" it´s easier for me to get the exact mask!). Thx 4 incorporation of this tool into LRc.
Alex.

In my use so far the tool mostly produces excellent results. Sometimes the generated patches don't blend quite as well as I would like. Especially in those cases I love the variations feature: one is usually almost perfect.
I have run into the issue others have mentioned, when the tool stubbornly keeps replacing one unwanted object with a different one. I would be perfectly happy with a removal-only tool that replaces an unwanted object with a patch that is intelligently synthesised from the surrounding areas.
All I want to be able to do in LR is removing stuff with as little traces as possible. If I wanted to put something else there, I would resort to Photoshop where you have control over what gets placed there instead.

After the introduction of the generative AI non of the spot removal tools work well anymore. They don't really remove spots or other small deistractions (sensor dust, straws of gras in the foreground, short plane tracks in the night sky) anymore, only making them a little less visible. They are alwys still visible afterwards, just a little less visible. Doesen't matter ehich tool I choose and aöso generative AI doesen't do a better job.

Your description suggests that you've applied the Generative AI, Clone, Heal tools to an image with an AI mask. You can easily check whether this is the case or not by looking for a red dot below the Masks icon on the toolbar. If red dot is present, then you'll need to 'Update the AI Mask'. See atatched screenshot.
To avoid the same issue in future, it's best to apply the Remove tool before creating an AI mask.

Thanks for your suggestion. I was indeed using AI maks. But updating them made no change. So I completely reset an image and tried again. Still got the problem as you can see in the screenshots.
That's the original image:
With the normal remove tool:
With the AI remove tool:
With the healing tool:
With the clone tool:
As I wrote, other things like sensor dust, hot pixels, airplane tracks, ... suffer from the same issue.

Thanks for your reply. My problem is, that all remove tools don't work properly anymore. They all don't remove objekcts correctly anymore and only kind of tone them down. This even happens also for small areas like hot pixels.

@kernto Check the Opacity slider for each of your repairs. It sounds like it's turned down, whereas it should be at 100 for complete removal.

Thanks a lot for your help, I guess that was the solution.
I guess I should have nitced that myself😅

Adjacent photos shot in burst. I removed 2 people, 1 van, copped final. Generative remove worked well, except for the slogan on the wall about South Africa for a free Palestine. The parts of the slogan got mashed into something unreadable, so that necessitated more cropping than I had originally wanted to do.

Ayer estaba trabajando bien, pero hoy (junio 1) no, no elimina las manchas ni copia de un lado a otro. Supongo que hicieron una actualización.

In applying Generative AI to complex item in several very similar photos, the Generative results are rarely, if ever duplicatable. I have not found any way to replicate paint and generate, it appears random

@lockephotography: "Especially when removing an object that has sky behind it, a very obvious shadow of the object is left in the sky. So I can't even use the generative remove feature when this happens. In the image attached, you can see the person on the far right that I tried to remove."
Do Settings > Update AI Settings. See here for more information:

Works great with small object in the background but anything large or close to object that has similar color didn't work so well.

I select the object I want to remove, it goes throught the Generative process, but doesn't remove. Just leaves a white outline around it.

IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. You circle the object, hit the 'subtract' option (or the add), hit apply and NOTHING HAPPENS. I'm left with an object with white lines around it.

@chuckw19823004: "IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. You circle the object, hit the 'subtract' option (or the add), hit apply and NOTHING HAPPENS. I'm left with an object with white lines around it. "
The white lines around the object results from having Tool Overlay set to Always. If you set it to Auto, then the lines will appear only when the mouse is over the image.
You don't "circle" the object, you paint completely over and around it. I took your screenshot and used the options Generative AI + Object Aware to completely remove the girl and the white lines. The first attempt replaced rather than removed the girl, trying to match the shadows and reflections in the water below here. So as the article above explains, I refined the selection to include the shadows and reflections, and the girl was removed. Then I included the white lines, and they disappeared too.
See the attached screen recording.
