Erasing by hand vs. AI erasing
A manual eraser tool asks you to paint over everything you want gone, zoom in on the tricky bits, and undo when you slip. It's slow, and soft edges like hair end up either chopped or fuzzy. The AI predicts the whole mask at once, including how transparent each edge pixel should be — something that's almost impossible to paint by hand.
