AI Mask not working

Myrna Walsh

I followed Dylan's tutorial AI masking of the red car near Eiffel Tower, step by step. However, when I select "people" in my photos, it generally masks the person on the photo, but it doesn't show up in the preview associated with that effect.  (In Dylan's. the car mask shows as black in the preview thumbnail.). I checked all the paint-ins and density, and they are correctly set.  However, if I choose everything but person, the thumbnail shows the masked areas though not accurately enough to use. Any suggestions?

    There is an update coming in a week or so. Wait for that, hopefully masking will be more accurate.

    Thanks Rick, but even after updating today  the AI mask doesn't apply. when I choose People.  Generally landscape, foliage work.  The person was easily identified, so it wasn't too complex for AI.  Back to the brush!

    The AI mask from the previous versions has been restored in this update. Maybe that will help.

    Well I've just requested a refund for the upgrade. I'll repurchase as soon as they are able to make the AI mask work properly. In my experience the red preview mask is nearly always significantly better than the refined version. Just allowing us to use the red preview as is without refinement would be a significant improvement IMO.

    So will there be another update to fix this?  I'm having the same issue even after the update.

    same here

    for example...using Super AI detects a flying pelican ( bif enough to see ) and if you are using layers and then use AI only some areas of the bird are detected and in some cases nothing....

    The company is working on improving the new masking features.

    Thank you Brian.  You always know what's up next, or how to fix things that are issues on our individual computers.

    I have the same problem with the Quick Mask Ai (W) function on my AMD-based workstation with 64GB RAM,16 Cores and NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super graphic board. On my Intel based laptop, it works.
    On my workstation: After trying to use the Quick Mask Ai (W) function in Effects or Local Adjustments, no other masking tool works.

    It would be a great deal to have it running on my workstation.
    I have deinstalled all previous Photoraw versions and Plugins. I have deleted all scratch data and stored configuration data I could find and reinstalled Photoraw 2023 from scratch. Still no changes.
    Do you have any idea, what to do?
