This thread is now closed. Please update to LrC 14.x or LrD 8.x. If you wish to provide feedback, please go to the new article.



The Lightroom team is sharing an early look at Generative Remove, which makes it easier to remove unwanted objects and distractions, even on complex backgrounds, with a simple brush stroke. Generative Remove is powered by Firefly AI.
 
How to use Generative Remove on a desktop:

  • You can find Generative Remove under the newly renamed Remove panel (aka “Heal”).
  • Make sure the “generative AI” checkbox is enabled before you start brushing (note: when unchecked, Lightroom will use Content-Aware Remove to fill your brushed spots). 
  • By default, you will be given a moment to refine your selection with an add or subtract brush. Remember to include shadows for a more accurate result! You can also skip this step by holding down ‘CTRL’ on windows or ‘CMD’ on mac as you finish your brush stroke. 
  • Once you’re ready to apply and have accepted the terms, Generative Remove will use Firefly AI to remove your distractions and intelligently fill in the space that’s left by the removed objects. 
  • Note: stable internet connection is required to use this feature.
  • Generative Remove also lets you choose from multiple variations, so you can pick the one you like best, giving you full creative control. 

    Checkout the FAQ and Best Practices
 
Please give it a try and share feedback and/or report variations in this community forum. It would greatly help to include details like which app you are using (i.e., Lightroom Classic or Camera Raw) and other system details. Our team will continually monitor this thread to track issues to improve the future experience.

Update:
Here are some tips if you are having issues with the feature replacing your object instead of removing it. 
  • Enlarge your selection - if your brush stroke is too tight, you will have unexpected results.
  • Remember that removing an object means painting over it, its shadow, its reflection, and any non-contiguous pieces. If you leave behind a shadow, a reflection, or a disconnected piece (e.g., a hand on a shoulder), the AI will attempt to create something to cast the shadow, reflect, or complete the unbrushed discontinuous item. You can avoid these issue by following the guidance provided in this linked tutorial. https://www.lightroomqueen.com/generative-remove-replace

 

The recommended order for applying edits is:

 

  1. Denoise 
  2. Heal (includes Generative AI Remove)
  3. Crop (includes traditional Cropping, Lens Correction, Transform, or any operation changing the geometry of the image, including round-tripping to PS to use Gen-Expand)
  4. Global Edits
  5. AI Selective edits (Sky, Person, etc)

    If you deviate from that, you may see the removed object remain as a ghost image. If this occurs, you will have to use Update AI Settings, which can be found under the Develop module 'Settings' menu.

Same problem.  Tried JPG images, Raw Images, get this message consistently on LRC.  Tried LR and similar message.  Tried restart nothing is working.  Always does a progress bar then ends with this error box.  Very frustrating.  Mac Studio with lots of memory and a very stable internet connection.  HELP.  Want to try to use this.

Same here. It worked perfectly this afternoon, but this evening when I tried to demonstrate the Generative AI Remove function to a photographer friend I keep getting the "failed" message. I've tried five different raw files and, yes, I do have internet access. Odd.

Hmmm.  This morning it worked perfectly.  Maybe I just found a time when the firefly servers were down?

An excellent tool, but I encountered some items that Remove AI didn’t work on. For example, I tried to remove a hat from a photo and received a message saying that remove had failed, instructing me to check the tool’s guidelines. I didn’t understand why, as it was just a simple hat on a wooden log. 😊
See the photo added.

Not too bad. Photoshop still better. See outline marks on the removed object, which Photoshop does not leave in it's current iteration. So, not as smooth yet. But it's a great first step. I can't wait for this to get as good as the version in Photoshop.

Congrats on awsome new feature! 👏

 

I'd love to have the possibility to choose whether I want to replace an object or remove it (replace it with the background). AI  Generative tool tends to generate alternative objects instead of removing them.

The result of the generative remove tool appears to have ai denoise applied by default. Unless denoise is applied to the image before using the generative remove tool you get patches of denoised pixels which isnt ideal

This is amazing. I was able to find a suitable generative fill but there was a faint trace of the old image still showing.

It's an incredibly useful tool!

But on two occasions, it insisted on drawing something unrelated into the deleted area: One time a dog onto an empty path, the other a hand (???) onto empty floorboards. Applying another layer of generative delete over the dog/hand solved it. Still, weird.

Such great Promise - yay!  HOWEVER, still doesn't allow one to fill at the edges of the photo. Reproduce is simple. Use the "Guided Transform" tools to straighten image, which then creates "empty" corners. Try and of hte tools, AI included, to fill that corner - but sadly LR doesn't recognize the blank areas (ie, previously off canvas, now part of the canvas). Only way(?) is to go to photoshop...

@andrzejv90126968  PS uses a different model in its Generative operations than this Lightroom release.  Differences are expected.

I am finding the AI is not removing and blending the background as expected - it is often trying to replace the object.  I wanted to remove a distant tree - it replaced it with a smaller one.   It was a pretty simple background.  as a test - I did the same thing in PS - typed remove and it did it perfectly

Hello,

Just started to play with the Lightroom Classic updates. Like Photoshop, I would like to be able to see the generated variations without having to toggle thru them.

 

Thanks

Very happy to see this tool in LR Classic! Unfortunately my first experience was not too good. I tried to remove an orange snack bag from a table scene, and no matter how many times I refreshed, it continued to give me different orange objects in place of the snack bag. I never got a variation which just showed the table with the bag removed, which is what I would hope a remove or erase tool would do. When using a tool to remove a distraction, I always want the distraction gone, not replaced with a different distraction. If I want something different, I'll go to Photoshop and type in what I want. It would be great if the remove feature focused on removing things.
