Unfortunately, the current tool is doing anything but that (per my description of what I’ve observed above) To me, the needed, efficient smartness I would value is a Smart Brush that I could use as a choice or on demand to fill a mask accurately to edges my hands might not be able to paint - ie, to provide a very accurate Edge Aware functionality selectively & only where desired.

That said, I’m not opposed to using a Smart Brush if the brush behaves smartly & saves me time in achieving my vision. I, personally, don’t like the concept of relinquishing creatvity to a (as I like to call it) ‘robot’ (a computing engine that ppl attempt to train but it uses math to interpret that). Especially if PAI is intended as a preprocessor which was my sense it is supposed to be, given its functions. A lot of photographs do not possess that. Unless, there are distinct tonal boundaries between said subject/object(s) & their surroundings. There is just no current way to accurately mask a subject or object with the AI Brush. Fixed old preview image popping in while processing a new image in batch mode.Fixed some images using the wrong camera profiles (e.g., Canon EOS R5).Fixed plugin crashing when using older hosts (CS6, Corel PSP).Fixed split view being offset at 100% display scale.Apply Current Settings to All now respects Linear RAWs.Removed autopilot green dot when the autopilot suggested model is NOT selected.Menu items now show shortcut keys on Windows.Checking for updates button is faster, and has a manual refresh button.Added hotkey to switch masking modes (x swaps between add/sub).If there’s a specific image you’d like us to see, you can send it us at this dropbox link.

We’ll be updating TPAI regularly to address those pieces of feedback and issue reports. Please give us any feedback or report issues with this release. It’s another weekly update, this time with polish and bug fixes, as well as an improved model for detecting blur in images!
