You'll soon be able to use artificial intelligence to get rid of unwanted visual elements in Windows.
Generative AI not only makes it possible to create complete images, but can also provide great assistance in editing existing recordings, so for example, assistive functions are already available in Photoshop or on certain mobile phones (such as Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy) that help to correct them from By deploying artificial intelligence and enhancing our images.
One of the most common requests is to remove unwanted elements, which a few years ago would have required some editing skills, but AI can do it with just a few gestures, coming soon to Windows 11 and Windows 10.
Microsoft has recently dedicated itself to the Windows Insider Testing Program He advertised on his blog, that the Photos application will be expanded with a new function called Geneative Erase, which means performing retouching with the help of generative artificial intelligence. With the old Spot Fix replacement tool, we just need to select the annoying elements, and the algorithm will make them disappear without a trace in the composition. This is evident in the image below, in which the artificial intelligence has conjured some people and a steering wheel.
The new functionality has been added to the Edit Photo > Retouch menu in the Photos app with build number 2024.11020.21001.0 or later, but it's not yet known when we can expect it to be released outside of the Windows Insider Testing Program. It's also great news that at some point in the near future, Microsoft will bring three AI-based editing tools to Windows 10 that were previously only available in Windows 11.
It is specifically blurring the background, removing it and replacing it with artificial intelligence. This premiere is another stunning sign that Microsoft has taken note of the continuing popularity of the previous generation system, and has gone back on its previous promise that the platform would not receive any additional feature updates. In the past, this has also been refuted by the turbocharging of the Weather app and the integration of the Copilot AI assistant.
