I think the really obvious, smack-you-in-the-face benefit is using de-noise on high ISO images (3200 and above on modern full frame). The rest (including super resolution) are too subtle for me to bother with since I almost never print larger than 13X19. It's now part of my workflow: ingest, cull, select all ISO>=3200 images, AI de-noise.
The image used for denoise looks to as if it destroyed the buildings windows and doors after it's application. I may be wrong but it's what I see. Thanks so much for your work Ed, it's much appreciated.
I should have been more clear, the RAW details option definitely is better at preserving details than the traditional noise and detail settings. It certainly is not perfect and the screen shot is showing 800% to demonstrate exactly what's going on. Personally I rarely need or use any noise reduction but... sometimes it suites the photograph and rendition intent.
Good information - thanks! I’m usually on Photoshop ACR, which has mostly the same tools, although sometimes with different names, but I will check these out. For me, for now, the demarcation line between content aware/sensei tools and ai, is at text-to-image, but really there is no line because even the first good old content aware tools were doing some basic machine learning. I don’t want updates in the middle of a project, so I have updates set to manual. They send me a notification, and I get to it when convenient.
Thanks for the guidance and doing the pioneering work.

Sound's right. I rarely see a need to up-size and am fine with my 20-something-mpix cameras. How do you find the RAW details feature with Denoise?

I should have mentioned that these new features are also in ACR via right click menu.
