Designed to simplify user interaction with system settings, this intelligent assistant responds to natural language prompts. For instance, a user could say, \u201cThe mouse pointer is too small,\u201d and the agent will not only locate the relevant setting but can also adjust it automatically upon request.<\/p>\n<p>The Click To Do feature is also expanding. With the new \u201cAsk Copilot\u201d command, users can interact with text and images on their screen to generate Word document drafts, launch tools like Reading Coach or Immersive Reader, communicate via Microsoft Teams, or transfer screen content directly into Excel spreadsheets.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft is enhancing Windows Search and the Microsoft Store with deeper AI integration. Users will soon be able to search for and install apps more intuitively. The Store will offer personalized app recommendations and feature AI-powered responses about app pages, while highlighting apps with AI capabilities through distinctive badges.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Introducing Copilot+ PCs\" width=\"749\" height=\"421\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5JmkWJNng2I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Several standard Windows applications are set for intelligent upgrades:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Photos<\/strong> will introduce a \u201crelight\u201d tool, enabling the placement of up to three virtual light sources for improved photo editing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paint<\/strong> will gain object selection and sticker generation based on text prompts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Snipping Tool<\/strong> will offer auto-cropping, text extraction, and a color picker.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Notepad<\/strong> will incorporate AI-assisted writing, text summarization, and basic formatting tools.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, many of these features will initially be exclusive to <strong>Copilot+ PCs<\/strong>, starting with <strong>Snapdragon-powered devices<\/strong>, and rolling out to <strong>Intel and AMD models<\/strong> at a later date.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft stated that its goal is to make Windows \u201cthe most personalized and efficient platform\u201d by leveraging AI and hardware innovation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; In a sweeping update to its ecosystem, Microsoft has announced a host of new AI-driven features for Windows 11 and Copilot+ computers, alongside the debut of the Surface Pro 12 and Surface Laptop 13, Windows Central reports.
