 - Improved local data sources for folders. You can now choose which files AI Studio indexes, for example, only PDF files, and whether it includes subfolders as well as hidden files and folders. By default, AI Studio now also indexes text files it did not recognize before, such as program code of any kind or a LICENSE file, so a Git repository makes a useful data source. Thanks, Paul Koudelka (`PaulKoudelka`), for this contribution.
 - Improved local data sources for folders, which now leave out hidden files and folders as well as build output and downloaded dependencies, such as the folders `node_modules`, `bin`, and `obj`. You can change this in the expert settings of the data source. When an existing data source contains such files, AI Studio removes them from its index during the next update.
 - Improved the background embeddings page, which now lists the files of a local data source that AI Studio left out, for example, images or files that are too large. It also shows which file types and folders lie outside what the data source selects.
+- Improved the Batch Processing assistant, which now also processes images in JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF format when the selected model can read images. If you used the assistant before, your saved file patterns stay as they are: click "Restore default patterns" or add patterns such as `*.jpg;*.png` yourself.
 - Improved the Batch Processing assistant, which now leaves out hidden files and folders as well as build output and downloaded dependencies, such as the folder `node_modules`. You can change both in the expert settings of the assistant.
 - Improved local data sources for folders and the Batch Processing assistant, which now leave out files larger than 1 GB, such as images of virtual machines. You can change this limit.
 - Improved local data sources for files and folders. When you move or rename the file or folder, for example, to another drive or a new computer, you can now select its new location when you edit the data source. AI Studio keeps what it has already prepared for every unchanged file, so these files do not go to your embedding provider again. Thanks, Paul Koudelka (`PaulKoudelka`), for this contribution.
