Copilot
Microsoft Copilot is a conversational AI assistant that streamlines workflows and enhances productivity by automating monotonous tasks and analyzing data. It makes intelligent suggestions to help users finish tasks quickly and boosts efficiency for content creation, data analysis, and communication. Copilot is also useful for creating documents, tracking tasks and schedules, and summarizing lengthy emails, so users can free up time to focus on other, more pressing tasks.
Cocreator turns ideas into art
Have you ever had a brilliant design in mind but not been able to put pen to paper? Cocreator can help! With Cocreator, everybody has the chance to be an artist by simply describing or drawing an image with text or image prompts. Cocreator will then generate an image based on those prompts in Microsoft Paint. To try it yourself, follow these instructions:
- Open Microsoft Paint
- Select the Cocreator icon on the tool bar
- Enter a prompt in the box (be as descriptive as you can for best results)
- Start drawing on the canvas with your mouse or stylus
- An AI-generated artpiece will appear in the side bar based on your prompt and sketch
- Click the generated image to apply it to the Paint canvas to continue editing or save
Subtitles in real-time
Keep up to speed with meetings and conversations with real-time subtitles during video calls or movies. Live Captions can translate subtitles from over 40 languages into English in real time, which is great during global meetings.
Enhanced video call quality
Windows Studio Effects instantly enhances lighting conditions, blurs the background, and removes noise and distractions for higher quality video calls without shelling out for expensive lenses or additional lights. It also allows automatic framing to keep you front and center during calls, and adjusts your gaze to simulate eye contact to make online conversations more engaging.
Crystal-clear display
The AMOLED display delivers stunning visuals, true-to-life blacks and beautifully vibrant colors that bring images to life. Each pixel lights up individually, ensuring enhanced vibrance, along with fast refresh rates and a widescreen display resolution.
