Microsoft is very serious about the integration of generative artificial intelligence technology directly into the device's operating system. Most recently, the album application in Windows 11, Microsoft Photos, has been updated with new AI features to increase image resolution and size.
Normally, we will use Photoshop or some online Image Upscaler service. With the new Microsoft Photos, the Super resolution feature uses the NPU and processes from within the device to make poor quality images look beautiful. The example given is an image size of 750 x 501 to 4500 x 3006 with an increase in level 6. Microsoft Photos supports up to level 8.
At the same time, Microsoft Photos also received the same feature on Phone Link and Snipping Tools that the system can now detect text to copy and paste and scan QR codes. For now, these two new features are limited to Copilot+ PC laptop users only through the Windows Insider program.
