Microsoft uses AI to write code for fixing Windows 11 UI inconsistencies
Overview
Microsoft product design VP Diego Baca says the company has started using AI to write code that speeds up fixes for Windows 11 UI inconsistencies.
Microsoft is rebuilding older Windows 11 interfaces with WinUI 3. Baca says the new Run dialog, built with C# and WinUI 3, has a median display time of 94 milliseconds, compared with 103 milliseconds for the old version.
The report also says a new search interface, which lets users type commands such as "switch to dark mode," is in preview testing this month. Baca says AI agents can improve team development efficiency but that designing an operating system for more than one billion users is not easy.
