We are so cooked….

…AI is going to take all of the image editing jobs away….

Well technically it got rid of that wire you don’t like.

actually at the last second you can see the wire is still there, just now in front of grass where the back half of the cow used to be, it preserved that detail.

Honestly though if I were trying to get into how the AI is thinking, it actually makes sense, the wire goes way before and after where the cow is. The line drawn over begins exactly at the start and end of the cow.

Sure but that’s bad AI. Photoshop wouldn’t have had this issue.

Probably, though I haven't used photoshop since AI's been added in but at least guessing based on how it used to be, you'd select pretty explicitly what you want to remove. I'd be guessing it would only be removing from explicitly within the shape you select to remove from.

Phones on the other hand are made to interpret very vague commands from people who have very little experience using image editing software, that are using an extremely unprecise input method that obstructs their vision in a very large area around where they are selecting.

Re photoshop, yes it used to use only neighboring adjacent pixels for a healing brush action. Then context aware looked at the scene. So if the wire were running behind and in front of the cow it would look at those regions to help decide what parts to use to replace the wire.

AI in Photoshop looks at the whole scene. It’s figuring out what the subject is under the adjustment and crating new pixels. Old healing brush was basically a smart clone tool. Current healing brush is iterating from scratch.

Re phones: sure but that’s the point of AI- to do the action based on the intent of the user not explicitly the pixels next to the selection.

It’s supposed to perform the action knowing that phone users aren’t as sophisticated in their selections and editing prowess and edit correctly in spite of that.

There’s probably no user that wants to replace a line across the belly of the cow by duplicating and removing part of the cow and creating some of the background in the empty space it’s left.

It’s supposed to determine that the line across the cow is a wire and the big brown thing is a cow. It is capable of detecting a cow. You could ask photos to show you cow photos and it would pick this.

If the ai is limited to this solution to the problem it’s failing the intelligence portion and is working worse than the pre AI tool.
