    You forgot “Recall”.

    I wanted to make a wordplay here, but I couldn’t find one.

    Anyway, a lot of people are worried about the OS remembering everything you are doing like it’s taking screenshots all the time.

    For my part, that would be a big no-no.

      Recall does things that weirdly, a malware would have done back in the day.

      it’s currently opt-in rather than opt-out, fully on-device and won’t work on devices with weak NPUs (or on any which completely lack it)
      unless it changes in the future it’s not that bad at the moment tbh

        Of course it’s on-device. Microsoft is doing all the processing on people’s PCs, rather than their own servers, where they’d have to pay for that computation.

        Data still gets reported to MS afterwards.

          It must communicate with Microsoft in a way, just by the fact the “AI” must not “hallucinates” by suggesting the user to jump from a bridge or to add Glue in his pizza…

          “On-device” has to be a half-true at best. I’m having a hard time believing that the NPUs on these new ARM chips are powerful enough for it to be fully on-device. Even more-so with “approved” x86 chips. There has to be some data sharing between the client and server, similar to how Rabbit does their shit.

            Look up TPUs, like a coral tensor. Extremely efficient at machine learning, only, and cheap. If NPUs use anything like a TPU, then it absolutely can do local “AI.” Then once the heavy lifting is done, then I’d imagine all that data is uploaded.

        …until a botched update or a bug sends everything to the cloud, MS makes an about face saying oops my bad, then say it was fixed.
