Microsoft is starting to integrate AI shortcuts, or what it calls AI actions, into the File Explorer in Windows 11. These shortcuts let you right-click on a file and quickly get to Windows AI features like blurring the background of a photo, erasing objects, or even summarizing content from Office files.

Four image actions are currently being tested in the latest Dev Channel builds of Windows 11, including Bing visual search to find similar images on the web, the blur background and erase objects features found in the Photos app, and the remove background option in Paint.

If Linux was more compatible with a lot of programs/games there would be absolutely no reason to install windows ever again

good news, valve has spend the past decade making it fucking rain on compatibility projects and they've gotten really good, most stuff works out of the box now and there are edge cases that actually perform better than under windows. i won't pretend it's universal, if there's specific windows-only software you're attached to that can still be make-or-break depending what it is, but otherwise the support for windows compatibility is pretty much there now. i've been windows-free for years.
