Microsoft launches beta version of AI-powered Recall feature for Windows

Microsoft has launched a beta version of "Microsoft Recall," a new feature for Windows that allows users to capture and revisit their computer activities. This tool uses AI to help find forgotten information, such as deleted files or past meetings. The feature faced delays due to security concerns, as researchers warned it could expose sensitive data. Microsoft has since added options to exclude certain apps from being recorded to enhance privacy. There are suggestions that Apple could develop a similar feature for Mac, integrating it with Siri and focusing on user privacy. Apple's approach would likely emphasize on-device processing and user control over data storage.
