Description:
The Paint app in Windows 11 has just received the feature everyone has been 
waiting for.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

 Windows 11 users are getting the Paint app bolstered with a really smart 
addition on the AI front. 

This is the introduction of Dall-E 3 support to Paint, or as its known in the 
app, Cocreator. 

If youve seen the feature in Bing AI, its a top-notch image creation feature. 
Basically, you can tell Cocreator what you want and itll make an image based 
on your description (and specified art style). 

As weve already seen with Bing AI, its easy to use and provides powerful 
results, so much so that when first rolled out with Bing Chat (now renamed as 
Copilot), there was a massive rush to use the image generation capability  
and a whole lot of buzz around how good it is. ( With a few wobbles along the 
way, mind , but thats par for the course for AI in many respects). 

 Windows Latest reports that Cocreator in Paint is now rolling out to all 
Windows 11 users, so it has left the testing phase (where it was first 
spotted back in September , before making it to the Release Preview build at 
the end of October). 

Theres a short tutorial to introduce the feature to help beginners understand 
what its all about, too. Analysis: Not got Cocreator yet? You will have it 
soon 

Not everyone will see the Cocreator feature right now, as the rollout will 
take a little time. Also, you need to ensure that youre running the latest 
version of Paint (so update the app), and if Microsoft asks you to sign up to 
the waiting list for the feature (in the app), make sure that you do this. 

Paint has been fleshed out considerably this year, not just with the addition 
of this AI-based feature, but also with a transparency effect, and moreover, 
layers, a much-requested piece of functionality that was added recently. Not 
to mention background removal which does what it says on the tin, quickly and 
with no fuss ( the Photos app also got this recently , as well as a 
background blur option to boot). 

The improvements for Microsofts core Windows 11 apps keep coming, as well as 
the ditching of some of the chaff in this department too, which is equally 
welcome. You might also like
