Microsoft's introduction of Copilot+ PCs intended to revolutionize home computing was met with skepticism a year ago due to concerns over features like Recall. Critics viewed the AI button as unnecessary and found Recall invasive since it stored data off-device. However, as AI adoption increased, the concept of agentic AI became more accepted. The Recall feature returned in Windows 11 as opt-in and with improved privacy measures. This evolution reflects users' growing comfort with AI in their daily lives, leading to a more favorable perspective on Microsoft's efforts.
A year ago today, Microsoft unveiled what it believed would be the future of home computing. Copilot+ PCs, optimized to harness the power of AI, were introduced with the promise of revolutionizing how we interact with our laptops and desktops.
Fast-forward a year, and the landscape has shifted. AI adoption continues to grow, and the once-ridiculed concept of agentic AI has gained traction. That shift in sentiment has helped normalize features like Recall.
