I use Topaz DeNoise on my Fujifilm JPEGs and I am satisfied with the results. I especially like that DeNoise allows the Fujifilm metadata to pass through and that I can select JPEG color profiles.
I also like that I can “Recover original detail” which in practice works out to remove some of the glitches that the AI filters can bring.
I would like to see similar possibilities in Photo AI. Especially the devouring of metadata makes it less useable.
I’d like TOPAZ to preserve the time and date of the photo. As I don’t always work on my pics straight away, the photos end up in the wrong order.
Are you working on Windows or Mac? What application are you using to view the image files?
Which exact field are you describing? If you are using the date created field in Finder on Mac, that is not something we can preserve since the new file was created at the time and date you processed it.
More information would be helpful so I can tell exactly what is happening.
Hi, I am working on a Mac.
and this:
If you are using the date created field in Finder on Mac, that is not something we can preserve since the new file was created at the time and date you processed it.
answers my question.
Thanks.

It would be great to have an option for TPAI to record its version and all of the settings used in creating a file in the metadata of the output file.
Specifically, I’d suggest that this information be written into the “User Comment” tag since Lightroom is happy to display that tag.
Currently that information is lost.
At the moment, you can include the filters in the suffix but are you saying having the version number and specific setting information would be much more useful?
Yes, I am. And specifically that this information should be put into metadata, not into the file name. Often I look back at a photo and need to know exactly how I processed it in case I’m redoing something or want to process another photo similarly. This is especially true since TPAI is evolving so rapidly–and was also true for Sharpen AI and Denoise AI.
Thanks
This would be an awesome idea!
I hate when there is a suffix at the end of the file.
It would be great if the photo metadata (settings, etc) were visible on the right panel.
I would like the option to set or restrict the metadata that is saved to a picture.
show metadata of file. would be nice to see iso\shutter speed etc to help determine how much adjustment is needed for noise \ motion blurr etc
This is something that our team is working to address.
Love the fact that the enhanced photo is added to all the collections of the original photo.
I note too that geolocation is propagated - excellent.
It would be great if it (had the option to) replicate (in order of importance/difficulty to do by hand):
Thanks for the idea and suggestion! Make sure that you do not forget to vote for your idea 
I think there is room to add the name and settings of the modules used on images.
What we have now :
This could be a pretty useful feature to track what was done on the files.
I’m not 100% sure but I believe custom EXIF data can pretty much have any type of text right?
Of course this could be useful for Gigapixel AI and Video AI
I’d like to UPVOTE the original post, but there doesn’t seem to be anywhere to do this.
One additional thought . . . What if the settings were kept within a ‘sidecar’ text file like an xmp, but specific to Topaz Photo AI, say .TPAI. This file could be saved within Photo AI (or in a folder associated with it) so that when the same file is imported again into TPAI, the sidecar settings are read and applied (automatically, if the user wishes). The text file would include all settings plus any edited or added masks. For example, I often edit the “Subject” mask as it is not always accurate.
I’d like to have Photo AI store the settings used for each image render/export in the file metadata. (Same as my idea in the Gigapixel forum.) It’s nice to get the basic model info in the filename. However, it’d be useful to be able to go back and see the exact order of enhancements and, for example, what the different Denoise settings were.
This would be especially helpful if you were comparing a few different exports of the same image when choosing optimal settings. It’d also be useful in going back to a project or image after closing it. You’d know what the last export’s settings had actually been.
Thanks for sharing!
@Lingyu, somehow storing the values of settings as metadata could be useful to certain users. 
Hi.
As an alternative workaround if you like until your suggestion is implemented
The current version of Photo AI used as a standalone application has this ability to remember previous settings applied to images after saving and returning to Photo AI which can then, be readjusted after the fact.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t apply using Photo AI as a plugin however, if you make your image a Smart Object before initiateitiateing Photo AI or Gigapixel for that matter within Photoshop then when you return to the Smart Object your settings will be retained and again readjusted afterwards.
Bear in mind that Topaz don’t currently officially support Smart Objects
Hope this helps
To expand on this idea: we need the settings for each enhancement to be recorded, either in metadata or as suffix in the file name. Now we can have -sharpen- added, but something like -SH.LBv2.26.31- to indicate “Sharpen with Lens Blur v2 Strength 26 Minor Denoise 31”. This way if we want to reprocess an image mostly as before but with some changes, we would know what we did before.
If you can find a place to stuff this into EXIF or .XMP metadata, and recall it when reopening an image, that would be even slicker.
