I love how Apple is doing similar stuff to Microsoft recall but people seem to be more chill with it. I guess Apple has a better security track record than Microsoft. They do on screen analysis when you ask for it much the same way Android can do. Microsoft is doing it every 5 seconds, analysing it, extracting as much contextual data from it and storing it in a database that has minimal (putting it politely) protection from attack and exfiltration.
Android is already ahead of Apple for the on screen contextual analysis in the year old Android 14, Apple is playing catch up. I think a good way to look at it is to approach it something not computer related. So for example. Imagine we have a little microphone on us at all times. Apple and androids approach is you can just ask the microphone to record you conversation and store it so you can recall (pun kinda intended lol) it in the future as you think it may be a useful thing to have recorded and transcribed. Microsoft’s approach is to just always record and analyse 24/7 just in case you want to recall something days or weeks later. One certainly comes across a lot more creepy than the other.
