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.

    I love how even this flagship feature is just one more lazy shortcut to another app that bloats the context menu 😅

      Context menu bloat was solved in W11 by hiding all those actions you do use behind a “more…” button 🤦‍♂️ TIHI
