Microsoft’s New Recall AI Tool May Be a ‘Privacy Nightmare’
Following the trend of tech companies in the AI race throwing privacy and caution to the wind, Microsoft unveiled plans this week to launch a tool on its forthcoming Copilot+ PCs called Recall that takes screenshots of its customers’ computers every few seconds. Microsoft says the tool is meant to give people the ability to “find the content you have viewed on your device.” The company also claims to have a range of protections in place and says the images are only stored locally in an encrypted drive, but the response has been roundly negative nonetheless, with some watchdogs reportedly calling it a possible “privacy nightmare.” The company notes that an intruder would need a password and physical access to the device to view any of the screenshots, which should rule out the possibility of anyone with legal concerns ever adopting the system. Ironically, Recall’s description sounds eerily reminiscent of computer monitoring software the FBI has used in the past. Microsoft even acknowledges that the system takes no steps to redact passwords or financial information.
Apple devices have had dedicated NPUs since the iPhone X and Macs have had them since the M1 chip; Intel and other processors are getting them also, and scaling them up is the big thing now -- for maximum on-chip AI processing. The Intel processors are coming soon and everyone is trying to not be the last to the party.
It's possible that the already widespread outcry about Microsoft's planned "Recall" AI feature will lead to a rethink on their part. On the other hand, Windows is already sending so much data back to the mothership that Recall might not actually be much worse than Windows is now.
I've said it previously on this topic and ill say it again, they already know everything you do on a windows pc, this makes no considerable improvement to their record keeping. Other than a retard can digest it now because its a screen shot.
