This update doesn’t just tweak existing features but overhauls the AI tools and processes extensively, incorporating more than 100 new upgrades.
To test this, users will need Windows 11 for ARM and a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite series processor (obviously). At least 16GB of system memory is needed, but for those working with 4K or utilizing Fusion, 32GB of system memory is recommended.
