They need to put AI inside the AI next and add a couple more full screens of ads , some subscriptions and super ultra premium++ edition OS DLC for functionality to save files.

Out of curiosity I've tried the AI feature in Paint (on my work computer) to erase something and use AI to fill in the background

I was removing a line between two items on a flowchart, background had diagonal colored lines in a regular repeating pattern (think college ruled paper at an angle).

Instead of connecting the lines in the background it seemed to just take an average of the pixel colors of the edge of what I erased and fill it in with that average color. Such intelligence!

I've been writing a small powershell script at work lately and as vscode now offers their AI bundled in I just tried it out of curiosity. It does a half decent job. Nothing I couldn't write on my own, but on a simple script it saved some time as I'm a long term linux guy and just getting my toes wet with powershell so I need to dig up proper functions and syntax pretty often.

But it also created a script which would have broken syntax and errors in it, so it still needed manual tweaking, but as long as you know what you're doing it can be useful. And also potentially dump your company data to some learning database.

Paint has two AI models depending on your hardware, whether you have a "Copilot Plus" PC or not.

And that AI is not free either. They bundled it with the Office update

On mobile so excuse my not linking to site but winaero tweaker has links for instructions how to replace current notepad with the classic notepad. Haven't looked back since.

You know you can just copy the URL and prepend it with "archive.xx/" right?

[–] pewgar_seemsimandroid@lemmy.blahaj.zone -4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

couldn't you just link it (archive.is)

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago

Sure, I could
