The Radeon RX 9060 XT is 5% slower than the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, but the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is 23% more expensive, at least when comparing MSRPs. -

I think each AI option has their ups and downs. For Copilot, I find it more personable in how it talks compared to GPT & Gemini. I also appreciate the open ended questions it often provides at the end of its responses to keep the conversation going. -

Microsoft offers free access to AI video creation with Bing Video Creator by Pradeep Viswanathan Two years ago, Bing Image Creator became one of the first major online services that allowed users to create images from text using OpenAI’s DALL-E model. Today, Microsoft is introducing Bing Video Creator, powered by OpenAI’s Sora, allowing users to create videos with text prompts. Despite announcing Sora last year, OpenAI has not been able to expand its availability to millions of ChatGPT users due to huge AI infrastructure requirements. It is still only available to ChatGPT Pro subscription users, which costs about $200 per month. Recently, Google announced its Veo 3 video generation model, which performs significantly better than OpenAI’s Sora, to all Gemini paid subscribers, making video generation accessible to even Gemini Pro subscribers, which costs just $20 per month. Now, Microsoft is democratizing access to video generation models by making Bing Video Creator free for all Bing users. Bing Video Creator is rolling out today globally (excluding China and Russia) on the Bing Mobile App, and it will be coming soon to the Bing desktop experience within Copilot Search. Bing Video Creator users will have the ability to choose between Fast and Standard generation speeds. Each user will have 10 Fast creations; following that, users can redeem 100 Microsoft Rewards points for each Fast creation or continue with Standard creation speeds. Once you have downloaded the Bing mobile app, here’s how you can access the Video Creator feature: Open Video Creator within the Bing Mobile app by clicking on the menu in the bottom right corner and selecting “Video Creator.” Just type in a text description of the video you want to create in the prompt box. Once the prompt text is ready, just tap “Create.” Or you can also just type directly into the Bing mobile app search bar "Create a video of..." to create a video. You’ll receive a notification when your video is ready to view. If required, you can also download the video or share it via social media or email. You will also have the ability to copy a direct link to the video for easy sharing elsewhere. Microsoft will be storing the generated videos for up to 90 days in your account for easy access later. Microsoft noted that the Bing Video Creator videos are 5 seconds long and can be created only in 9:16 format for now. Microsoft will be adding the 16:9 format soon. When you are waiting for your video to be created, you can also queue up another two videos. Once one of the slots becomes available, you can add another one to the queue. When Bing Video Creator becomes available on desktop, you can visit Bing.com/create for both image and video creation needs.

Question
ebody
Hi, I cannot figure out and I also had no luck with google so I'm asking for your help...
I'd like to edit the taskbar buttons and I know (found in the VS Documentation) that I need the ITaskbarList interface but I don't no quite how to use such a unmanaged interface in C#... can you help?
The second question is: how can I detect that a program was launched (or started) in C#? I tried with a lot of WM_messages but I just can't catch this event... I also tested some hooks and so on, but it seems to catch only the program's own WM_CEATE message... how can I catch other programs' messages in my app?
The third question: how can I catch mouse move event outside of my app? As soon as the cursor leaves my app I receive no new messages from the system... there has to be some way to do it, like in SnagIt for example etc
