Microsoft is launching a 50-day AI Skills Fest, starting April 8, 2025, aimed at helping individuals advance their technical knowledge in artificial intelligence. The global event will feature a wide array of activities including hackathons, both live in-person and virtual events, self-paced tutorials, and community events. Microsoft hopes to set a Guinness World Record for the most participants completing an online multi-level AI lesson in 24 hours as part of the inaugural launch.

Microsoft is also rolling out updates to its Copilot+ PCs. AMD and Intel-powered Copilot+ PCs will gain access to Windows Copilot features like Cocreator, Image Creator, Live Captions and Restyle Image, previously available only on Snapdragon-powered devices. These features utilize the onboard Neural Processing Unit (NPU) and generative AI to enhance user experiences within Microsoft Paint and Photos, enabling image generation and modification.
