At the 2023 Build conference, Microsoft announced several updates to Microsoft Store apps on Windows 11 and 10. In addition to updates such as AI-based review summaries, Microsoft also launched AIHub, a new section showcasing AI applications for computers. Now, Microsoft has a new version of AIHub for users to try.
The updated AIHub is mainly targeted at Copilot+PC users whose devices have dedicated NPUs that enable AI experiences such as Windows Studio Effects, Live Captions, Paint Cocreator, Recall, Click to Do, etc. After opening the updated page, Microsoft Store will display a beautiful page with features and apps compatible with AIPC devices.
Microsoft says the updated section also has "beautiful new visuals and smooth flows to help make your browsing experience exciting." It can help new users get familiar with their fancy PCs and the features available to them. Here's how the new AIHub will look on a Copilot+PC like the Surface Laptop 7 and its recently released Intel-based variant:
In the future, Microsoft will update more features on AIHub. These features include Recall, ClicktoDo, AI-driven WindowsSearch, and more. As of now, these features are available in preview in Windows Insiders.
If you don't have a Copilot+ PC, you can still access AIHub to browse AI-enabled applications that run on "traditional" PCs, such as Microsoft Designer, ChatGPT, ReadingCoach, and more.
Microsoft is now rolling out the updated AIHub to Copilot+ PC users in the US, Canada, UK, and Australia. Customers in other countries and regions will receive the update next month. As always, you can see what's new in the Microsoft Store by clicking the "What's New" button in the lower left corner of the window. Microsoft also encourages users to share their feedback, which has previously helped the company implement many useful changes.
