With an upcoming update, Windows 11 will get a completely new appearance and feel thanks to an AI-powered feature that will improve the desktop experience.
Internal documents discovered by Windows Latest lead us to believe that users’ desktops may soon feature something close to a “live wallpaper.” This would cause the wallpaper to appear to be “popping out” of your screen as your pointer moves around the screen, and its appearance would change in response to the cursor’s movement.
In addition to this, Windows Latest hints at the potential of adding a ‘parallax effect’ to the desktop background, making the wallpaper move more slowly in the background than the windows and apps that are on top, giving the illusion of depth to make your background look more immersive.
Microsoft has been pushing hard on AI integration, putting a lot of time and effort into implementing artificial intelligence into its products since the success of the new and improved Bing, and it seems that every facet of Microsoft’s products may be graced by AI at some point.
We might initially notice the functionality on newer, more potent PCs since AI-powered wallpapers are most likely only going to be available on devices that can enable the movement detection necessary to achieve the intended effect.
