Following a <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/05/20/microsoft-debuts-ai-focused-pcs/">strong launch event</a> for its AI-centric Copilot Plus PC devices, the hallmark AI feature was deemed by an expert as a ‘<a href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/03/microsoft-ai-feature-dubbed-a-security-disaster/">security disaster</a>.’ It took a while, but the company responded—not with an apology, but at least with a commitment to <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/07/microsoft-wont-apologize-for-ai-recall-features-security-holes/">make some key changes</a>. For example, while Recall was once opt-out, now it will be opt-in for its public launch.</p> <p>About that public launch though: it’s no longer happening, at least not any time soon. While Recall was originally planned to ship with the first Copilot Plus PCs, those devices will now ship next week without the controversial feature.</p> <a data-layer-pagetype="post" data-layer-postcategory="microsoft" data-layer-viewtype="taxonomy-ninetofive_guides" data-post-id="954169" href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/14/its-official-microsofts-privacy-panned-recall-ai-feature-is-indefinitely-delayed/#more-954169" class="more-link"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" fill="currentColor" viewBox="0 0 39 38" class="icon-expand"><path fill-rule="evenodd" d="M38.71 20H0v-3h38.71z" clip-rule="evenodd"></path><path fill-rule="evenodd" d="M18 37.9V0h3v37.9z" clip-rule="evenodd"></path></svg> <span class="open">Expand</span> <span class="opening">Expanding</span> <span class="close">Close</span></a> </div> </div> </article> <article class="article standard"> <ul class="article__meta-guides fs-xs"> <li class="meta__guide"><a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/privacy/">Privacy</a></li> <li class="meta__guide"><a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/security/">Security</a></li> <li class="meta__guide"><a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/microsoft/">Microsoft</a></li> </ul> <h2 class="h1"><a class="article__title-link" href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/10/microsoft-recall-apple-version/">Microsoft Recall was a security disaster, but I’d love to see Apple do it properly</a></h2> <div class="post-meta flex"> <a class="author__image-link" href="https://9to5mac.com/author/benlovejoy/"> <img alt='Avatar for Ben Lovejoy' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ecf44b2f82be1cf21f8195025f24b89b?s=18&d=mm&r=r' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ecf44b2f82be1cf21f8195025f24b89b?s=36&d=mm&r=r 2x' class='avatar avatar-18 photo author-gravatar' height='18' width='18' loading='lazy' decoding='async'/> </a> <span class="author__link"><a href="https://9to5mac.com/author/benlovejoy/" title="Posts by Ben Lovejoy" rel="author">Ben Lovejoy</a></span> <span class="meta__post-date">Jun 10 2024 - 5:21 am PT</span> <div class="meta__comment-count"> <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/10/microsoft-recall-apple-version/?extended-comments=1#comments" class="comments flex"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" fill="none" viewBox="0 0 30 30" class="icon-comment"><path fill="currentColor" d="M0 0v19.139h5v4.784h5V30l7.94-6.077H30V4.785h-5V0zm2.5 2.392h20v2.393H5v11.961H2.5zm5 4.785h20v14.354H17.06l-4.56 3.49v-3.49h-5zm3.75 3.589v2.392h12.5v-2.392zm0 4.784v2.392h7.5V15.55z" /></svg> 16 Comments </a> </div> </div> <figure class="img-border"> <a class="article__image-link" href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/10/microsoft-recall-apple-version/"> <img width="1600" height="800" src="https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/06/Microsoft-Recall.png?w=1600" class=" wp-post-image" alt="Microsoft Recall screenshot" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/06/Microsoft-Recall.png?w=320&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1 320w, https://i0.wp.com/9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/06/Microsoft-Recall.png?w=640&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1 640w, https://i0.wp.com/9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/06/Microsoft-Recall.png?w=1024&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2024/06/Microsoft-Recall.png?w=1500&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1 1500w" loading="lazy" decoding="async" /> </a> </figure> <div class="article__content"> <div class="article__excerpt"> <p><a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/microsoft/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Microsoft</a> Recall sounded like a very cool idea, but was <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2024/06/03/microsoft-ai-feature-dubbed-a-security-disaster/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">very quickly revealed</a> to be a <a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/security/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">security</a> disaster.
