of interacting, creating, and communicating on their Swift devices. Cocreator[[i]] helps users bring their ideas to
life by taking descriptions and generating new images in nearly real time. Live

languages and present English speech captions in real-time, whether it is a
live video, movie dialogue, or YouTube clip. Windows Studio Effects[4]
comes with AI-boosted features such as Background Blur, Eye Contact, Automatic
Framing, Portrait Light and Creative Filters to improve lighting and make users
look their best in their virtual meetings, livestreams or video calls. Copilot,
the everyday AI companion, is also accessible with a single click of the
dedicated Copilot key.
Acer’s AI-designed applications are also
available on the Swift AI laptops, making these great go-to devices for
everyday use. The AcerSense utility application helps users take seamless
control of the laptops for system changes, check-ups, quick access to available
AI features, and customizations with one click of the AcerSense key. Acer’s
AI-enhanced conferencing tools in the Acer PurifiedView™ 2.0 and Acer
PurifiedVoice™ 2.0 work together to ensure users look and sound their best when
communicating online. These can be instantly accessed and configured with the
help of the intuitive Acer QuickPanel that automatically appears when a device
detects that the webcam and microphone are activated. Acer User Sensing ensures
data shown on the screen stays protected even when the owner is away. With a
built-in proximity sensor, the secure PCs accurately detect the user’s presence
based on distance and movement. This prompts the screen to lock automatically
when users move away from the laptops. Once they return, they can easily log
back in with Windows Hello.
