Hi,
I’ve purchased a new MacBook Air with M5 CPU and 16 GB RAM. Unfortunately, AI masks act very strangely on this machine. Editing the same photos on a MacStudio with M1 Max works perfectly.
BTW I’m using PL 9.6.
Problems on the Air:
- Sometimes, creating a mask like “background” results in an error message saying (roughly translated from German) “The AI mask couldn’t find anything matching your selection”.
- Sometimes, the same mask could be created. But after restarting PL, the mask is displayed with an exclamation mark icon and a tooltip saying “The mask could not be chosen”.
- Changing the AI engine from “Apple Neural Engine” to “Graphics Processor M5” and restarting PL makes the mask work again: No exclamation mark and the adjustments applied to the mask are visible
- Not changing anything at all and restarting PL one more time: Exclamation mark is back, adjustments invisible again
- Switching to CPU and restarting: Mask is back again
So this is pretty odd and as I said: No problems on the MacStudio.
Is this a known bug? Is there a known workaround?
Thanks!
