Where are they? Can you point out?
How are you using the app (Standalone or Plugin)?
What system specs (OS, processorā¦)?
What image file types?
Hello.
If you magnify / zoom-in, there are freckle-like patterns on Billās face, neck and even on his teeth.

Iām going to use my best Crocodile Dundee voice: āThose are not freckles. THESE are freckles!ā
And weāve got something again which I will call āTopaz teethā (from Gigapixel):

Wellā¦ at least she doesnāt have the famous Topaz Eye! But THESE freckles, poor girlā¦
Eye Of The Topaz (cue music)!
Thx. Iāll zoom in to look for them! Yāsure heās not just getting old & age spots ā¦ 
Seriously, thereās a ton of color noise on the original. Do the āfrecklesā happen even if Denoise is run before the megasharpening?
Whoa! Ha-ha!
Topazās measles / chickenpox?!

Hard to track all the various release issues here and there . Which release do you find works best for you?
Using it standalone. Using MacOS Sequoia v15.0.1. Images are jpg, as an output from PM.
Although I have just tried editing direct from Lightroom and thatās just as bad, closes pretty much straight away.
Was going to try and upload a screen record, but donāt think itās allowing me to.

Thx.
If itās crashing immediately, you likely canāt get to the Help menu to copy a Log to send (they should have included a Dropbox link at top of each release thread) or post here.
Iām a Win user. I canāt tell you where to find the Logs on a Mac. Hopefully you know, or one of the Mac users can post the file path to assist youā¦
Good luck!
At the moment I working with 3.3.0 and Iām happy with the results.
But I use only denoise and sharpen. All other features I do not need.
I donāt have time at the moment to test the update to 3.3.1
Iāve managed to fix it, uninstalled, installed the older version available, then updated and itās now working

Over on the Gigapixel thread I started my story about using GPAI to upscale an AI image 4X + 4X. Then I wondered what would happen to those results with Photo AIās new Super Focus.
Since Super Focus was recently optimized to run 2X faster on Macs I gave it a try on my M2 Mac Mini.
First up:
Loading the beast of a render (373 MB) into PAI gave a preview but no āBeforeā image:
However, I was able to do some selective previewing of Super Focus and try different settings on the M2 without much delay at all. You can see how different combos affected the image differently (especially the roofing):
To actually output the Super Focused results of this new monstrosity wouldāve taken over 2 hours so I passed ;-). At least we got the previews.
Interesting that all of your settings permutations changed the design of the original roof. Versus just sharpening it (if thatās what someone would want to happen).
Unless Medium/None would have done that and it wasnāt a tested comboā¦ Iām trying to look at the roof of the bldg segment on the right with the light in the window (and there isnāt a comparable preview box for that roof area in your 1st snip - so maybe the Low/None would have handled it).
Thx for the visible comparisons.

Pretty soon Iāll do a more proper comparison. The heat of creativity and all thatā¦

It does get exciting! I can relate ā¦ Just not yet on these new TL features b/c I canāt use them on my PC or in Ps.
What about Super Focus? Assuming it already worked well on PCs. At least on mine it did, ha!
Itās quite a thrill to be able to use it on my Mini. Waiting for Redefine to be optimized, thatās the one I enjoy most.
