Microsoft Recall => bad.
Apple Recall => good.
- minimaxir 2y agoThe massive difference here is that Apple Recall is 100% on device. (for the use cases they demoed anyways) EDIT: Yes, I'm wrong.
- sseagull 2y agoMicrosoft Recall is completely on-device (or so they say).
- skydhash 2y agoIt's mostly the screenshots things that get people. Semantic search is ok if the index is properly secured and privacy is a concern. And localized context is ok too (summarizing one web page does not screenshot my whole screen). I believe Microsoft has gone with building the easiest option (recording everything) instead of thinking about better contextual integration.
- anonbanker 2y agoThose are pretty big If's when you have a webkit or blink-based browser on the same device.
- _lhb8 2y agoIsn't Microsoft Recall also 100% on device?
- pbronez 2y agoYup, this is the fascinating thing to me. Looking forward to some detailed comparisons between the two architectures.
- fh9302 2y agoApple does not take screenshots every couple seconds, unlike Microsoft. That's what people were bothered about.
- anonbanker 2y agoThat was merely one aspect of what people were bothered about. The most obvious one.
- samatman 2y agoTwo companies who have earned very different reputations over the decades, will elicit rather different reactions when announcing similar features, yes. I also missed the part of the linked article where it says that my Mac is going to take a screenshot every few seconds and store it for three months.
