  okay, I'll concede, my scope also was pretty limited. I still stand by not trusting the public with deciding what's the best use of AI is, when most people think it's anything more than statistics supercharged in its implementation.

  I really do like it for something that I want to just do quick/small edits, or something that can be slapped together quickly. But I do hope this isn't the start of a trend to bloat mspaint and aim to compete against more robust image editors.

  The pessimist in me fears they're going to, and start slapping on AI data harvesting measures that they're integrating into Windows, like for training their own AI art generators. But this addition, in a bubble, is a welcome change.
