Still seems like an early beta to me. Especially when I read the list of fixes in the weekly updates, and many of them are the most basic things that should never have been included in any release.
The update for color and exposure are primitive compared to photoshop and lightroom. Refinements are needed if you want to charge more than $150 for renewal.
I use Photo AI every day for CG and photo work with great results. Thank you! Is it possible to get a model that achieves maximum accuracy and detail even if processing time is high? I think there are cases where people are willing to make this trade-off. I've had such images where I would not mind leaving them to process for a while to get the best result possible.
looks nice. I am using LRC host editor for global and local retouching and topaz as plugin. Does topaz ai 2 is now as good as topaz denoise ai plugin I use now on sony a7rv raw files ? does topaz ai2 work as good on exported tif than on a original raw file ?

Topaz Photo "Ai" is now a misnomer. They have significantly reduced the "Ai" the program does and turned it into Topaz "MW" (Make Work). They meet every challenge with yet another "Manual" adjustment option or preference option so what used to be "Ai" on Autopilot is now gone. Batch processing is no longer possible on anything other than photos that are very good to start with. There are manual options like toggling on 'Reducing Noise' (which is a silly name for a switch since it should be labelled 'Reduce Noise'). On photos filled with noise and artifacts that Autopilot totally misses, that can be toggled on and the program works like magic to remove the noise. That, however, creates thousands upon thousands of PERCENT MORE WORK for the user because Autopilot doesn't work on batches of images. Instead of fixing this they are spending all their time and energy on adding useless features that try to mimic what the other excellent programs do that most photographers already have. The features work amazingly well individually but "Ai" is a thing of the past with Photo Ai.
