Microsoft is planning to introduce new AI-driven 'Cowriter' feature in Notepad

Several users on X/Twitter have identified a fresh Cowriter feature in the latest build of the Notepad application. It appears Microsoft is intensifying its AI thrust on Windows, impacting even simple apps like Notepad.

The Cowriter function could potentially enable users to rewrite text, modify text length, and alter the tone and format. Although Notepad's Cowriter function is not live at the moment, the existence of specific files and marketing images suggest an imminent launch.

Microsoft's AI integration into Notepad is part of a broader initiative to incorporate AI into various apps and areas within Windows.
