About this tag
Windows AI components are discrete, versioned packages that Microsoft delivers through Windows Update to Copilot+ PCs. These components include Image Processing AI, Image Transform AI, and Phi Silica on-device language models. They are targeted at specific hardware platforms such as AMD and Qualcomm, and are installed automatically on eligible Windows 11 systems running versions 24H2, 25H2, or 26H1. The updates improve on-device capabilities like image scaling, foreground/background extraction, generative fill, and object removal in apps like Photos and Paint. Users can verify installed components via Settings > Windows Update > Update history. This tag covers the release model, version history, and hardware-specific updates for Windows AI components.
