In the era of artificial intelligence, one cannot evade the entanglement of AI features across all digital platforms. Behold, with the recent unveiling of the Windows 11 24H2 update, Microsoft unveils a plethora of groundbreaking AI features tailored for Copilot+ PCs. Alas, the majority of Windows 11 features are rendered inoperable on x86 PCs lacking a dedicated NPU boasting over 40 TOPS. However, for those in possession of a Copilot+ PC, a world of upcoming and existing AI innovations on Windows 11 beckons.
1. Epiphany
Lo and behold! Microsoft hath bestowed upon Copilot+ PCs the controversial Recall AI feature, post a meticulous security refashioning. As October whispereth its arrival, Recall shalt grace Snapdragon X-infused laptops of Windows Insiders. Come November, Intel Core Ultra 2 and AMD Ryzen AI 300 laptops shall revel in Recall’s embrace. ‘Tis revealed by Microsoft that Recall lies dormant by default, permitting users to toggle its enchantment during the onboarding rite. Moreover, Recall may now be banished from thy PC entirely. Verily, the Recall database findeth sanctuary within a fortified VBS realm, accessible solely post Windows Hello authentication.
Unbeknownst art thou to the wondrous Recall – a sentinel capturing the screen’s visage in timely intervals, crafting a semantic tapestry. Should thou seeketh to resurrect a bygone screen memory, descriptive cues or vague prompts are the keys to its divine repository. Yon, Recall commemorateth every feat on thy PC, proffering swift recollection and seamless continuation. While the allure of Recall doth beckon, one doth ponder the comrades’ discomfort sharing screens with an AI artifact, despite Microsoft’s assertion of localized processing via the NPU.
2. Ingenuity in MS Paint
Behold the grandeur of Generative Erase and Fill within the hallowed halls of Microsoft Paint akin to Adobe Photoshop’s visage-altering tool. This boon graces Copilot+ PCs post the 24H2 update. As thy hand doth highlight an aspect of an image, ye may delete or add with mere utterance of a descriptive prompt. Paint’s Generative Erase/Fill, a welcome harbinger of distraction expulsion from images on Windows 11, doth allure.
3. Artistry in MS Paint
Behold! MS Paint beckons forth the Cocreator AI feature onto Windows 11, drawing from the wellspring of the on-device NPU to birth images from thy very sketches. A word or two shall summon the desired creation, offered in the guise of Pixel Art, Watercolor, Anime, and beyond. With Generative Erase/Fill and Cocreator at its helm, MS Paint ascends as a titan of AI artistry on Windows 11.
4. Alchemy in Photos
The Photos app hath undergone illumination with new AI features adorning its visage. Image Creator doth unleash AI imagery sans the crutch of third-party altar-like Midjourney, Flux, Dall-E, et al. Let thy descriptive cues unfurl, and behold AI imagery incarnating in moments.
Beyond this, thy existing images are bestowed a new guise through AI’s touch in the Photos app. Whether via prompt or choosing from ethereal styles like Fantasy, Anime, Cyberpunk, witness thy images metamorphosing. Moreover, the Photos app unfurls the veil to background removal and Generative Erase, accessible even to non-Copilot+ PCs, thy CPU orchestrating these feats sans NPU.
5. Revelation in Photos
Witness the advent of Super Resolution in Photos, obviating the need for external AI image upscaling tools. This Windows 11 AI marvel elevates image resolution tenfold, imbuing clarity and detail, while purging artifacts and imperfections from aged photos.
