These AI functions are smart and getting smarter. But they are not a substitute for you. This is a quick snap I made in Burnsville, NC of a sign. Note the extensive wires in the photo. ON 1 has a delete wires section. And it did a good job of the wires. But, it also removed the smile from the girls face and the ribbon trim. I did not notice it highlighted that small “wire” but it did and, presto, smile is gone. It is none-destructive so, I could retry or undo and be more careful. Note as well that it did not take the pole. It was not supposed to do so. However, when I just painted over it to remove the pole with little care, it did not do a good job. To really removed it would require sections of the work and, likely, some retouching. I did not do either of those as this it not a photo I really wanted to spend any time on. It did illustrate that you need some care with these tools but the wire removal, fast and very clean.
So, why did I take the photo? Just for the sign, I have a collection of old, unusual, interesting or just caught my attention signs.

Just wires —-oops.
pole with no effort to make it really neat.
This would be the image I was going for with the shot
Here the wire removal tool, used more carefully, produced an acceptable, not perfect, image. It took care of the one that crossed the sign and removed those in the street to the right. You could also, if the photo was really worth the effort, fix the bricks.
