Microsoft has found a gold mine with artificial intelligence, and it appears that it is going to bet the future of all its services and products on this technology. The launch of Microsoft Copilot last year could be accompanied by Windows 12, a new version of the system that could arrive as a free update throughout 2024 to take advantage of the new AI-ready computers.
What is clear is that absolutely All Microsoft applications and services will receive artificial intelligence, One way or another. In some cases, like the Edge browser and the Word word processor, these changes have already been noticeable; in others, it is about to arrive.
When we say “all apps and services,” we actually mean all of them. The latest leak demonstrates this, with the implementation of AI in one of Microsoft’s most basic and oldest programs: notepad.
As the Windows enthusiast shares, PhantomOcean3, the new version of Notepad includes the possibility of inserting text created by Artificial Intelligence. To do this, the program has a new “Cowriter” function button, which will display the different text creation options; Among the available functions, there is one which rewrite the text with another style, changing the tone and format, or lengthening or shortening it. Therefore, Notepad could adapt our texts for different uses or expand the information.
A leaked image shows a pop-up window, which would display changes to text written in Notepad; This is very similar to the Copilot features already available for Microsoft Word. It is important to note that this function will not be infinite; We will have points associated with our account that we will have to spend every time we want a new AI-generated text, similar to the Bing image creator with Dall-E.
Of course, one has to ask whether Notepad really needs such advanced functionality. This program has provided a simple and straightforward way to edit plain text for decades; In fact, until not long ago it kept the same interface, but with Windows 10 it began to benefit from modern functions such as tabs, but nothing else. It’s still one of the simplest programs They come preinstalled by default with Windows, but this is precisely why they are so useful and necessary for editing simple texts.
