when I try and remove an object instead of removing it a different version of it is presented

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 😀

When removing objects against a clear sky, the sky is darkened around where the objects was

@PhotoInge: "When removing objects against a clear sky, the sky is darkened around where the objects was"
That can happen if you apply any of the Remove tools on top of an existing mask. In Develop, do Settings > Update AI Settings. In general, do Remove first, then create the mask.

Hi,
Love the feature, but...
Remove should be more of a ''remove'' thing than a ''replace'' thing.
The selection of remove areas isn't intuitive.
The results are very volatile (sometimes very good, sometimes pretty bad).
The general application of the generative removal tool should be more like in Photoshop, where you have more control over the affected areas.
Kind regards,

Hello, I'm new to using PS and LRC. I'd done some tests with the AI element suppression in PS and I'm delighted to see the function arrive in LRC. I generated a first time the choice N°2 was good but not perfect, I then updated and the 3 new proposals were not good, when I wanted to return to the proposal N°2 of the first generation that was not possible whereas one can baculate in PS. Did I make a mistake? If not, it would be nice to be able to go back to the previous generated version.
Thank you Corinne

The command Edit > Undo will back up to the previous version. See the attached screen recording for an example.

Really an amazing addition! I find myself using it al the time and I'n pleasantly surprized by it's accuracy. Bravo!

I have the same issue as many do, it doesn't remove, just replaces with similar object. I end up going to PS to use it there. For me it has been completely unusable. Hopefully all this helps. Will be nice when it works like PS. Which is amazing.

It seems Adobe erred in naming it 'erase', maybe'replace' would be better

If that doesn't help, attach a problem photo here or upload it to Dropbox, Google Drive, or similar and post the sharing link here, calling out which object you're having trouble with.

This is my new favorite tool in Lightroom! The only strange issue I've encountered is when I try to remove people - sometimes the original person is replaced with another person. I did discover that removing the shadow is important to avoid replacing one person for another.

Right -- this article covers that and other tips for doing remove instead of replace:

If you're still having problems with removing a particular person, attach the problem photo here or upload it to Dropbox, Google Drive, or similar and post the sharing link here, calling out which person you're having trouble with.

It doesn't work. I've stopped even trying to use it.

"It doesn't work" really does not help anyone. The purpose of 'Easy Access' and this thread is to provide meaningful feedback that the Development team can work to address in the final version. Maybe you can be more specific about what doesn't work by describing your results, etc.
As an aid and based on previous feedback, you may find below linked tutorial helpful.

@Susan22949128oi72, if by "doesn't work", you mean that it replaces a selected object with other versions of the object, then see this article for how to remove rather than replace objects:
https://www.lightroomqueen.com/generative-remove-replace/
If you mean something else, please attach full-resolution screenshots of the entire LR window (not phone pics) showing what you've selected and what the result is.
