Windows AI (Windows + Devices)Building the future of AI-powered experiences in Windows - from delightful, engaging, and privacy-upholding user-facing experiences to platform building-blocks that will leverage next-gen hardware, online, and local capabilities. Our features will be used by >1B Windows devices across the planet. My team is focused on early ideation with Windows Design and Research, the Azure Cognitive Services team, and the Applied Sciences Group, through prototyping and implementation. Windows Recall is the first flagship Windows AI experience we\'ve announced; we built it to help you find anything you\'ve previously seen in your PC, easier, faster, and more naturally than ever before; this is a deeply human challenge because our memories are imprecise. We\'re taking local OS-wide search to the next level by powering semantic search for text and images - this means that you\'ll be able to describe what you saw and Recall will show visual matches or related text matches. We\'re using Windows Copilot Runtime and NPUs to make this happen on any new Copilot+ PC.Shipped engaging and delightful gaming experiences for PC Gaming such as the Game Pass Windows widget by partnering with Xbox product management, design, research, and infra/operations. Set the foundation of next-gen gaming features that will drive more immersive and personalized PC gaming experiences that will help grow Game Pass subscriptions playing on PC.
