- Microsoft has been spotted working on a “Magic Erase” feature within OneDrive for Android.
- This feature could be used to remove areas and infill them with generative AI.
- We’ve seen similar generative AI-drive eraser functions within Google Photos and even within Microsoft’s Photos app on Windows.
Every tech company is finding ways to incorporate AI into its product, with varying levels of success. Within smartphones, we’ve seen companies use their AI smarts to good use with features like Google Photo’s Magic Eraser, Audio Magic Eraser, and Magic Editor tools. Microsoft is also betting big on AI to beat companies like Google, so it should come as no surprise that the company is working on incorporating similar AI Magic Eraser-like functionality to its OneDrive application.
In the latest Microsoft OneDrive v7.1 beta 1 on Android, we’ve spotted strings that indicate that Microsoft is working on adding a “Magic Erase” feature that will use AI for generative erasing functionality.
