Microsoft is enhancing its Photos app with a new AI-powered auto-categorization feature. Currently being tested by Windows 11 Insiders on Copilot Plus PCs, the update intelligently sorts images into dedicated folders based on their content. The AI identifies and categorizes photos such as receipts, screenshots, identity documents, and handwritten notes, streamlining photo library organization. Importantly, the categorization process analyzes visual content regardless of the language used in any text within the image, offering a truly versatile solution.
