Microsoft’s Recall feature uses AI to capture and store user data. While it can be useful, it also poses a significant privacy risk. Here's what AdGuard is doing about it.
It’s a centralized search that can dig through your activity cross-platform and parses it through a centralized AI. Whether the data is stored in a log or as screenshots is a difference, but not as big of a difference as people make it out to be. It just feels intuitively weirder because one is humanly readable and the other one isn’t.
To be fair, that’s my takeaway from a lot of AI backlash. A whole bunch of it is people finally getting an intuitive grasp on activities that big data has been doing for years or decades and it finally clicking into shock because they can anthropomorphise the inputs and outputs better.
No wonder the techbros have lost their intuititon for what will trigger backlash. In many cases they’ve been doing far worse than those things with zero awareness or pushback.
