The world's most valuable company, Microsoft, has delayed its much-talked-about 'Recall' feature update on its Copilot+ PCs. Copilot+ is a generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by the company, which replaced the company's former system Cortana.
When it comes to the company's 'Recall' feature, this update would periodically capture photographs of the user's activities by taking snaps of the computer screen.
The system then gives it to Microsoft's AI system, Copilot, thereby recording what is being called a 'photographic memory' of a user's activity.

According to a communiqué released by Microsoft on June 13, it will currently be available on the Windows Insider Program (WIP), an open software testing program.
This feature, at a time of mistrust in big tech companies, has once again brought about concerns about security and privacy. These recorded data could be misused by parties with vested interests.
The storage of the said data and its security are another area of concern. In addition, the possibility of a system that is oriented in artificial intelligence and what it can do, and a lack of clarity on the same, is another factor that has raised concerns.

The AI Rush is only taking on a much grander shape, with major tech companies coming together to make the most of the moment. The most recent of them came when Apple announced the integration of its system with OpenAI, (which, as mentioned before, is backed by Microsoft) ChatGPT system.
