i just installed it... it's a glorified "filter" pack. You can adjust the intensity of the filter, etc... but there's no "AI" here. It's literally just different "Presets" like "Big City Lights" which just adds a warming hue and decreases the exposure while blasting the contrast. It's like Instagram filters, but in a program for your PC.

Useful if you don't have other photo editing software I suppose, but anyone expecting "AI" or any other kind of "magic" anything at all, this is ain't that. It's just basic color correction software with a bunch of presets.
FYI, this is more than a glorified filter pack. Yes, there are templates you can choose from to quickly give your photo a predefined look. It goes deeper though. There's an "edit" mode that has a limited number of AI sliders and many other non-AI sliders to make fine-tune adjustments. Just be aware that the functionality of Luminar AI has been largely replaced by the newer Luminar Neo, so don't expect many updates to the AI application. For a better idea of what Luminar AI can do, there are a lot of tutorials on YouTube. FYI, I own and have used both applications.
I've used both AI and luminar 4 and still have both. If you use the batch editing feature in luminar 4, you maybe disappointed with luminar AI as it does not have batch editing

I'll check it out, the reviews look good. Thanks for posting! Might be an easier way for me to bulk edit photos instead of Lightroom as that can be too time consuming.

Offhand, did you see if you can create new filters or import from another source?

I paid for Luminar 4 which is one version behind Luminar AI. I liked it a lot, it was fun and made my photos look better with no much work. I'm excited to try AI version and see if it's even more fun!. Thanks OP.

I'll just say as good as this may be, it's just not as cool as the AI tech out there. You can see what I mean by checking out getimg.ai or playgroundai.com

FYI if you're editing raw images, I found this software to start with a horrendous default compared to Lightroom. Skin tones aren't even close and it takes a huge amount of work to get them close.
