Title: Generative AI data storage in lightroom
Post by: larkis on November 20, 2024, 03:50:59 pm

With everything being AI this and AI that in both photoshop and lightroom, I was wondering where lightroom actually stores the pixels that get generated by the AI tools? With most other operations it's stuff that can be stored in the library or XML files given the fact it's only slider values. AI seems to actually bring in pixels so that data must be stored somewhere. If this is stored inside of the catalogue, would it not eventually lead to insane bloat of the actual lightroom catalogue?

lrcat-data is where Lightroom Classic stores AI mask info, probably the same for other AI data.

Does data from brushes get stored in a different place?
