User: "Recall is creepy."
Recall: I've seen you stuff you enjoy. You call me creepy?

Thank you for asking the last question for us all, windows phone fans.

This sounds great for the 40 people on Earth who need to switch languages live in an Amazon chat.

The recent features like Copilot and Recall in Windows raise concerns about user privacy and data security. These functionalities seem to contradict Microsoft's claims regarding user data collection. For many security-conscious users, the closed-source nature of Windows further heightens these concerns. In security best practices, a "zero trust" approach is recommended for handling sensitive data. Unfortunately, Windows' current features seem to move in the opposite direction. This will lead many users including me to consider switching to open-source operating systems like Linux, which offer more transparency and control over user data. Sorry, but I can not trust the words from Microsoft about security and privacy since Windows is not open source.

Does Recall feature have photo, video, audio, 'screen recording' graphic memory that we can recall? Can we replay and recall screen transition, audio, video and text..?

If you add AI & it is fully enabled all the time. I will move to macbook next time. Actually I'm moving anyway. The AI stuff is just so overblown. I don't need you to tell me what's on the screen I already see it.

lol saying AI is only 1 year old is simply a lie

[PaulPaul-vjvx]

Thats what men want… a fotographic history of what they were watching at night…. 😂😂

We need Qualcomm on Framework laptops!

999$ is very affordable price to the average consumer lmao, And about if Microsoft want to tap into the iphone market ? They tried and it failed with the Windows phones and almost unalive their Windows PC space with Windows 8 so nah they should stick to the PC software and gaming space with Xbox.

by "faster than a macbook a macbook by a long while" it better significantly outperform at least the base m3 macbook air

How much can you really trust that Microsoft is in this for the long haul? Up to this point history has shown that pretty much as soon as things get difficult Microsoft bails. At this point it’s best to be skeptical of what Microsoft is pushing here.

AI equivalent to self driving. Skull and crossbones

I remember Yusuf as the guy who introduced Xbox One. The "Tv tv tv tv tv" guy. He is so connected to Xbox's HUGE failure (not his fault obviously), that I don't think he should be presenting any new microsoft product, ever. He does a good job, but all we can hear is "tv tv tv tv tv".

[theuncannyepicurean]

So their doing us Xbox One again. Buy the new device

[canadianguy]

Recall is the most invasive product Microsoft has ever made. They say local and private, kind of like how windows 11 auto puts saved files into onedrive even if you didnt set it up. This ai will be optional to start and a forced update will make it mandatory.
