Awesome! Is there a similar technique for the Apple vision ‘Copy Subject’ feature? I’ve become extremely reliant on it, but it feels very limited in access.



I had to Google this, do you mean the feature in Photos on mobile where you can "extract" items from a picture and make them into stickers? Apple seems to call it "lifting subjects" [0] [1].

EDIT: Try replacing the "Extract text" action with "Remove background". When running the shortcut, use "-o" to specify output image filename.

   shortcuts run remove-background -i ~/Downloads/portrait-beard.avif -o beard.jpg
