Total Recall
Microsoft has just unveiled a forthcoming Windows AI feature to help users „recall“ all their past activities — by recording everything they do in real-time.
As Microsoft explains on its website, the feature — which is called „Recall“ and is still being tested — takes „images of your active screen every few seconds.“
„The snapshots are encrypted and saved on your PC’s hard drive,“ the description continues. „You can use Recall to locate the content you have viewed on your PC using search or on a timeline bar that allows you to scroll through your snapshots.“
This functionality, as Ars Technica explains, extends beyond mere snapshots of your screen to include on-demand transcription and translation of video meetings and can show provide context for what they were doing during a given moment.
