To use Recall, users will need to purchase one of the new “Copilot Plus PCs” powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite chips, which include the necessary neural processing unit (NPU).
Well, I guess I’m keeping my current notebook for the unforseeable future.
Actually, if this is the requirement, then this means our data isn’t leaving the device at all (for this purpose) since everything is being run locally.
Unless there’s a “database failure” that would resurface screenshots from your PC on Microsoft’s cloud, or anything like that. I mean, its too many lines of code, what if something happened and oops, the local data was uploaded to your Onedrive, my bad, keep using our products, this will never happen again we swear.
The only way to be sure is not having it at all. Remember the CSAM filter Apple wanted to force on iOS? This is as bad as that.
IF that’s an option and IF it don’t turn itself on after an update. Given Microsoft’s history I wouldn’t trust that. They invested way too much in AI to afford making it easy for the user not to use the feature.
Yeah. But they’ll likely make Azure Recall running on their own AI hardware. You’ll have to opt out (on every windows update) of their ad driven free model that uses your data to target ads, and sell your overall profile on.

Fear not! Eventually you’ll be forced to take an update that will bring this blessing to you:

Very true… what I meant to say was:
[…] then this means our data shouldn’t need to leave the device at all […]
Or you know, you can just not turn it on.
