What I notice about today's Adobe updates is that they will not install on older processors. They require a processor with Advanced Vector Extensions 2 support. I am guessing that is one of the requirements for Windows 11 support as well. My home machines are fine, but one of the machines I do a little LrC and Photoshop on at work will not run the updates.
do we have the new adaptive profile in LRC?
The new AI-powered Adobe Adaptive Profile is available exclusively in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) as a public beta and has not yet been integrated into Lightroom Classic.
I have not found it very useful. See comments in next post by me below. An alternative starting point is a flat profile with Auto.

I haven't tested it myself — I simply responded to Joel's question.
I should have been more precise. It seems to favor brightness and saturation often blowing out the whites. It also misses tonal balance. There is a warning not to use auto with it. What it does do is have a slider which can reduce these impacts. As a starting point it might be useful for some images for quick posting but I am guessing most wont' favor it for wildlife.

Adaptive can be magic for quick edits.
It uses hidden masks for the sky, the main subject (if there is one), and another for global adjustments.
