Microsoft’s Recall on the new Copilot+ PCs is quite impressive:
Now with Recall, you can access virtually what you have seen or done on your PC in a way that feels like having photographic memory.
There are obvious trade-offs using this if someone gets access to your computer, but I’d be comfortable with it if there are enough settings. For example, maybe I only want the recall to go back one week, not months.
Ricardo Mendes and possibly at least 2FA to be able to browse back in time.. I’m still wondering where is this stored..
Manton Reece @rmdes They say it’s all stored on device and encrypted for your Windows profile. So, probably as secure as it can be.
Michael Gemar @manton “Obvious tradeoffs” seems to be a vast understatement. There is no way this will not be abused on a large scale.
Ryan Lounsbury @manton I’m not a fan of this. Especially given this is coming from the company who is well known for not letting users change settings if it doesn’t suit Microsoft.
I say this being a Microsoft fan and building a career on their software. I’m weary of all their Copilot AI cruft.
