7 AI features you must try in Windows 11: Copilot PC not required

The global PC market has seen a strong start in 2024, with shipments already higher compared to last year. The hype around AI PCs seems to be one of the big driving forces for this uptick, and it’s only projected to get stronger. Microsoft’s introduction of its AI assistant Copilot and the flurry of new Copilot and Copilot+ laptops this year has rekindled the spark in Windows laptops. AI features are the main draw here and just like the smartphone world, you can now do things like have AI generate a professional painting or drawing, easily separate your subject and the background or add an aesthetic blur behind your subject, and plenty more.
