Listen to this Post

Good news: You no longer need a Snapdragon processor to enjoy Windows 11’s AI Copilot+ features. AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 and Intel’s Core Ultra 200V chips now support these advanced tools, including:
– Instant live captions
– AI-assisted image editing in Paint
– AI-powered photo restyling
– Text-to-image generation

Previously, these features were exclusive to Snapdragon X Series devices. Now, PCs with NPU-equipped AMD and Intel processors can run AI workloads locally.

Compatible Devices

  • Surface Pro 10 & Surface Laptop 6 (Snapdragon version)
  • Asus Zenbook 14 AI
  • HP Pavilion Plus 14 (Ryzen AI 300)
  • Acer Swift Go 14
  • MSI Prestige 16 AI Evo
  • Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i 2025 (Intel Core Ultra 200V)

Key AI Features in Windows 11

  1. Image Creator in Paint – Generate rich visuals using hand-drawn sketches + text prompts.
  2. Photo Restyling – Convert photos into sketches, paintings, or modern digital art.
  3. Illustration Generator – Create images from text descriptions (ideal for marketing & storytelling).
  4. Live Captions – Real-time audio transcription (supports English & Simplified Chinese).
  5. Enhanced Voice Commands – More natural, free-form voice control (coming soon to AMD/Intel).

How to Enable AI Features

1. Ensure November 2024 Windows Update is installed.
