Um.... I actually want this feature. Maybe if its FOSS and I own the data. But the idea is amazing.
It's like some of the Pokemon games where it tells you what you did. Seriously amazing, but yeah needs to be FOSS and secure.
Then be able to query it. That would be amazing.
Borrowing from something I saw elsewhere: Set up a task / cron job / whatever it is on your OS that takes a full screenshot every minute and then sends it to Microsoft's AI team.
Or save it to a drive or something, I'm not the boss here. And neither is Microsoft.
What would you use this feature for?
It takes images of your screen and stores it with context and then you can query it. Images, text, graphs, etc.
“Hey, I was working on an automation for my home assistant and it stopped working. I had an automation that worked about 6 months ago. Can you pull that automation up and show me”
“My boss showed me a slide about a month ago talking about the TPS report, can you pull that up and show me that slide deck?”
The use case is endless.
Screencap and screencapture programs have existed forever, just use any, it's not a new idea
I think you misunderstand what Recall actually does. It takes images of your screen and then you can query it. Images, text, graphs, etc.
"Hey, I was working on an automation for my home assistant and it stopped working. I had an automation that worked about 6 months ago. Can you pull that automation up and show me"

Oh my... Ok right I didn't realize the extent of it. It's a total nightmare
Well, supposedly the data is stored locally. Like I said. It's a good idea. I wouldn't mind a FOSS version.
