Anyone tried CC19 "Select Subject".
Has anyone tried the new select subject in CC19? Is it hype or does it work ........ or is it, as usual, a bit of both?

Actually this was introduced in CC2018, in an update in January this year. It works remarkably well.

See my review of it here:

Re: Anyone tried CC19 "Select Subject".
Having used CC19 for a while now, one of the few things I really like about it is Select Subject.

I really didn't want to like it because I didn't like the idea that an algorithm could do as well I could with years of experience behind me. But most of the time it does an amazingly good job. Where it misses it often gets a substantial portion right leaving not too much to do to clean up the rest.

Obviously there are all sorts of images where it is a disaster but they are usually images where doing it by hand is really hard too.
