To me it seems a slower option because a lot of initial time is spend selecting the subject then looking for faces before applying the adjustments. As a result I have been trialing this over the past week and my initial impression is that it provides a easy automatic option for many images. If you have a current licence for the Topaz Image Quality Bundle (DeNoise, Sharpen and Gigapixel) this includes a free licence to Photo AI. Standard is usually fine but at times one of the others will be better for the specific image. For the Topaz plugins I use the Comparison view which lets me compare 4 different AI models. I have not used the masking feature built into the plugins much, usually using the Photoshop select and mask option which I find mostly quick and accurate. At times, especially for motion blur, I will add in Sharpen AI specifically masked to the areas needing adjustment. I have found DeNoise AI at it’s default setting usually provides a very good noise reduction with gentle sharpening. I use them through a Photoshop action which applies them to a separate layer which I then mask. To date my experience with Topaz plugins has been largely with DeNoise AI and Sharpen AI. This is largely a product combining the features of Topaz DeNoise AI, Topaz Sharpen AI and Topaz Gigapixel AI into a single plugin that uses an Autopilot option to analyse an image, select the subject and automatically apply corrections for noise and sharpening and can also upsize an image if needed.
