Wow. I was really struggling removing a person from a group. Then I watched your technique for larger selection and generative fill. Worked like a charm!

Very good and much needed video. Good explanation of when to use the remove tool vs generative fill. And the tip about selections effecting generative fill is important!

Great job Colin. So, glad to see that *someone* is keeping it real.

Great tips. I stumbled on a couple of these procedures when trying to “trick” GF, without thinking about the underlying reason, but so much better to see it explained in a work flow. Thanks Colin.

So glad I understand why generative fill keeps replacing objects instead of removing them!! Thank you!!!

Thanks Colin. It took me a while, but I've learned to use the romove tool first then tidy up small areas with genrerative fill.

Thanks for the comments at the end. Far too much click-bait around, and good to hear a prominent Youtuber mention it.

Super informative for me. I’ve gotten so frustrated when AI replaces something with a different person. lol now I know what to do, thanks so much.

I've been using Generative function on a daily basis for removing eyesores from real estate images. It's so good I've gotten spoiled and do not use content aware fill/remove. I will probably have to be more conservative in generative fill if it will be cost prohibitive.

As of now, I have a 97% success rate with GF. The only drawback is the delay between execution of the command and the end result. I hope at some point Adobe can put part of the AI software into a dedicated SSD to serve as a library/cache of sorts to speed up the process.

Your content and teaching ability are much appreciated. Had to guess at the meaning of the Camel's and Gnats comment tough, until I could Google it. Fits well.
