Microsoft has announced a series of new features aimed at revolutionizing how users interact with their computers. The Redmond company has become a forceful rival in Artificial Intelligence and may be about to revolutionize this sector. One of the new features, Recall, has drawn criticism from Elon Musk, who compared it to an episode of Black Mirror. Recall is a tool that will allow Windows 11 to remember everything the user does with their personal computer, using AI technology to shed light on forgotten processes or actions.
During the annual Microsoft Build 2024 developer conference, Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, discussed how Windows computers will be able to fully understand how users interact with their devices. The technology behind this includes constant capture of images of the computer screen, powered by AI. While Elon Musk and some users have expressed concerns about the invasiveness of this technology, Microsoft has not responded to the criticism and is focusing on releasing new products like the Surface Laptop and Surface Pro.
The new era of AI-powered computers presented by Microsoft also includes Copilot+ technology, with features like Recall, which retrieves previously worked-on data like emails, websites, and files. These new models come equipped with advanced processors that exceed the speed of competitors like the Macbook Air. The CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, praised the rapid adoption of this technology, emphasizing the excitement among developers in this innovative moment.
In addition to these technological advancements, Microsoft is also making efforts to increase demand for computers after a decline in sales. The company is working with other brands like HP, Asus, Dell, and Lenovo to export Copilot+ technology
