Cocreator creates AI art based upon a description and your sketch of the screen. Draw a few mountain peaks — absolutely terribly, as I did — add a few trees, and then ask Cocreator to draw the scene, and it will using your sketch as a guide. But it gets better: Cocreator can do this in real time.
In this case, Cocreator reminds me of Meta.ai, Meta’s recent AI art reveal . It, too, can perform AI art generation in real time, tweaking the image literally as you type it. Cocreator does the same thing, but just as you draw.

It’s a really interesting meeting of the minds. Cocreator didn’t do a great job with my early sketch, but when I filled in details — coloring the trees green, making the mountains purple — suddenly Cocreator understood what I wanted. It started filling in the details I couldn’t, and did a rather nice job. A few “V”‘s in the upper corner, and it created the silhouettes of birds flying.
OpenAI and Google are building more collaborative AI engines that work with you to figure out what you want. Microsoft may be doing the same with Copilot. In the meantime, though, the company’s making great strides with AI art, and Cocreator continues to play to Microsoft’s strengths. If you buy a Copilot+ PC, try it out.
