Microsoft unveils new AI tools for Windows 11
Microsoft will add a range of artificial intelligence (AI) features to Windows 11, with new ways to edit content and control PC settings.
Later this month, Windows 11 users will be able adjust settings within the operating system with text commands via the Copilot AI assistant. Here, users can type “enable battery saver” or “show Wi-Fi network” and the Windows Copilot will perform the action. Other skills include “display IP address,” “launch voice input,” and “show system information.”
There are also new ways to edit content in two Windows apps: Photos and Clipchamp. For video-editing tool Clipchamp, gaps in conversation can be removed with a “silence removal” feature. In Photos, the generative erase feature lets users select and remove “unwanted objects or imperfections” from an image.
