OK but my whole browser history doesn't get sent to Microsoft to be processed by an AI.
it's on-device
Lol, you should do stand-up.
Assuming they don't quietly change that, and assuming they can even be trusted in the first place.
running locally using dedicated hardware in snapdragon cpu is kinda the whole point of the thing though.
also it's not really going to work otherwise, think about it for a second. How useful is a "recall" feature that only remembers moments where you were connected to the internet? also processing such a huge amount of data online is not a feasible task.
also the whole point of the locked down "ai" features (and windows 11 itself lol) is to boost hardware sales. they're not going to make it work on other devices through the "cloud" at least for that reason alone.
They'll have a smorgasbord of data and an AI to process it. If it's not monetized from the start it will be, they're just normalizing it, easing the tip in.
I created an Excel spreadsheet 10 years ago on my laptop. I never agreed to upload it.
I can see it on my phone right now.
because you saved it into onedrive?
which is the default save location in ms office unless you switch it to local (it's not like it uploads stuff automatically tho, it's just the default folder it shows you)
