I kid you not; as a child, I used to think that past life was without colors, as shown in the film. What if I tell you that AI is slowly and gradually mingling into MS Paint? Attention, Windows 11 Insiders in the Canary and Dev Channels – get ready to unleash your inner artist with a touch of AI magic in Microsoft Paint. The latest addition to the Paint app, known as Cocreator, has arrived on the scene, and it's here to turn your wildest artistic dreams into reality.
Prepare to be amazed after you've entered. Microsoft will send you an email with 50 credits to get you started on your image-creation adventures. But, hold on, what's the catch? Each time you conjure up a picture, you'll lose one of your valuable credits. The math is simple:
For those with the gift of language flexibility, it's essential to understand that Cocreator is currently only proficient in English. It communicates in English within the borders of the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Italy, and Germany. The rest of the globe might want to brush up on their English or wait for the AI to learn a few other languages.
But hold on, there's more! Paint's Cocreator is only one piece of the creative puzzle that Microsoft has been meticulously constructing for Windows 11. AI fans may be pleased to learn that features such as the AI-powered Copilot assistant have already begun to trickle out to users of the stable version of Windows 11. Not only that but a new layers tool in Paint and the ability to edit translucent images have been added to the artistic arsenal.
Finally, the inclusion of Cocreator in Microsoft Paint for Windows 11 Insiders is a step toward democratizing art production through AI. While the rest of the world waits for their time to plunge into the artistic abyss, Windows Insiders get a sneak peek at what's to come.
