Notepad now supports AI features like Summarize, Write, and Rewrite on Copilot+ PCs, with no subscription required. If you have a subscription, you can seamlessly switch between local and cloud models based on your needs. If you’re not signed in or don’t have a subscription, you can use the local model to accomplish your tasks. For now, these features support English only, making premium AI more accessible and flexible for everyone.

No one uses notepad for anything other than writing down quick notes while on the phone.

Actually, it's a really powerful code editor. It's used by many devs and sysadmins to quickly edit code and text based configs when it's not on their machine. It's also useful when you boot up a fresh vm just for a quick test, downloading another text editor there doubles the work you need to do.
