Has anybody dug into the new neural filters in Photoshop, especially the betas? There is one that looks promising called death aware haze which allows to add haze, warmth and light in the parts of the picture that are not in focus. Considering this is still a beta, I found it quite encouraging, and since the output is a new layer you can always paint "off" the effect where it got a little overzealous (I had to remove the effect from the beak of the bird and some of the red plumage) .

I probably toned down the effect a bit too much and was a bit heavy handed on the warming up but this looks like a tool that eventually might save a lot of time to soften backgrounds.

They also seem to be working on a more advanced noise reduction algorithm but that's not available yet.

The neural filter are interesting. It looks like some of the filters will be processing remotely and some will process locally. I noticed the depth aware filter says "This filter processes image data in the cloud." It will be interesting to see if this is just the beta versions or if they will always process in the cloud. This could be a way to take advantage of significant processing power and the algorithms will always be improving. I am working on scanning some old family photos so I would like to see the "Photo Restoration" and the "Dust and Scratches" in action.

Yes indeed - not sure if the plan is to eventually have the algorithm reside locally or remain remote - but as you, I could see some advantages to remotely hosted processes when using some of those real a.i. / neural solutions (i.e. truly self improving over time, not just a marketing gimmick).

I am sitting on over 5000 slides I still need to go through and scan, so a smart Dust and Scratch removal feature would be a blessing!
 
Some are pretty amazing. Super zoom intrigues me and seems to work really well.
