Microsoft is putting AI actions into the Windows File Explorer (www.theverge.com)

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

I'm not missing anything, even games run fine with Wine/Proton. Also, a lot of the Linux games a really fun! (I personally enjoy Xonotic and SuperTuxKart. I also like to play custom roms with mgba) The only thing I'm missing is pretty much ONE really niche network program thing which didn't have a Linux version. Everything else either has a Linux version, is a Windows game that can be run with Wine, or has some Linux alternative (think inkscape, kdenlive, okular)

Yeah but having to use third party software to run games is annoying and it's probably buggy and you more than likely get errors

I mainly play WoW and I doubt that'll run effectively.

Just looking up online how to install it already looks tedious.

Just get lutris and I expect it works just fine. Worked fine for overwatch, so i expect WoW too.

But you're right, launchers are usually the biggest issue when its comes to compatibility. Especially that completely useless piece of shit Rockstar peddles.

I rather run everything in third party apps than deal with Windows again,. But each his own of course.
