Microsoft is partnering with digital pathology provider Paige to develop the world's largest image-based AI model for identifying cancer, which can identify both common and rare cancers and aims to assist doctors in dealing with staffing shortages and growing caseloads. Paige has received FDA approval for its AI viewing tool FullFocus, and with Microsoft's help, it has built an advanced AI model that is training on 4 million slides, making it the largest computer vision model publicly announced. The model aims to improve accuracy and efficiency in pathology and democratize access to healthcare.
Artificial intelligence (AI) image generation tools, such as Midjourney and DALL·E 2, have gained popularity for their ability to create photorealistic images, artwork, and sketches with just a few text prompts. Other image generators like DreamStudio, Dream by WOMBO, and Canva offer unique features and styles for generating a wide range of images. However, copyright issues surrounding AI-generated images have led to ongoing lawsuits.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to democratize game development by making it easier for anyone to create a game, even without deep knowledge of computer science, according to Xbox corporate vice president Sarah Bond. Microsoft's investment in AI initiatives, including its acquisition of ChatGPT company OpenAI, aligns with Bond's optimism about AI's positive impact on the gaming industry.
AI tools from OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google are being integrated into productivity platforms like Microsoft Teams and Google Workspace, offering a wide range of AI-powered features for tasks such as text generation, image generation, and data analysis, although concerns remain regarding accuracy and cost-effectiveness.
Windows Photos is receiving an update that includes content and text recognition for photos, motion photo support for Google and Samsung devices, as well as a text recognition feature in the Snipping Tool.
Microsoft's Photos app is testing AI-powered features including background blur and smarter search capabilities for photos connected to OneDrive.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in smartphones, with Google and Apple integrating AI features into their devices, including camera enhancements, adaptive features, and smart suggestions, while AI-powered generative chatbots like ChatGPT and Google Bard are challenging traditional digital assistants like Google Assistant, Siri, and Alexa. The AI revolution is just beginning, with more AI and machine learning features expected to come to market in the future.
Microsoft has updated its Snipping Tool and Phone Link features, allowing Windows PCs to notify Android users when a photo is captured, enabling them to load the image in Snipping Tool for text extraction and editing, and introduced a redaction feature to remove sensitive information from screenshots.
