Such a good reason to ditch Microsloth completely.
Given MS history, why would anyone believe their assertions that Recall won't phone home? Sure the data may be stored on device, but that doesn't mean it can't be mined.
MS has changed T&Cs and "accidentally" breeched privacy in the past. I fully expect that to happen here.
_"It's either superpowerful, or a little on the creepy side"_
Are you talking about Apple, Microsoft, or Google? All three seem to fit that description 😂
Trifecta joke for the winning comment! Totally true!
What i’m curious about… can any of these Ai’s:
• Create, organize, title folders and sub folders?
• Go through all my documents and place them in the correct folder?
• Go through all my images/videos and place them in the correct folders?
• Will I be able to ask it: hey Ai, can please place all my *x business documents* into the correct *x business folder*
• Can I ask it to move all my duplicate documents, images, videos into a delete folder that I will review later before I decide to delete them?
Not yet, and that is LEGIT what I'm waiting on. A true AI assistant. We haven't seen anything like that yet, but I'm thinking it will take MS or Apple to pull it off.
Right now, I would also love for one of them just to be able to schedule my day and put it on my calendar-- but they all struggle with that as well!
@@TheoreticallyMedia At that rate, soon, you wont even need to think at all. Let the AI think for you and all you have to do is enjoy the ride (and trust that the AI isnt going to annihilate you!) 😂
@@CorteumWhen we don‘t need to think anymore it‘s when we start to degenerate.
@@Corteum You make no sense. *Your logic.. assumes we become dumber if we rather have Ai* organize and assemble our thousands of data pieces into organized folders and save us from wasting hundreds of hours doing something (that adds no value to thinking) 😂😂
@@TheoreticallyMedia yes the scheduling is another one that needs to be addressed, but we are definitely on our way there. Finally.. release from drudgery.
What would be really funny is if Apple managed to get Scarjo to agree to be the new voice of Siri.
They do have a dump truck of money! The really funny alt might be if Apple can snag her, and we get SiriJo!
AI stuff aside, I find it interesting that they tout their NEW Surfaces' speeds against a (basically) EOL processor - not to mention, the slowest version of it. The M4 is already released in the iPad Pro. And with WWDC coming up in 2 weeks, I guess they had to say something while they still could. But I doubt this will age well.
Not to say that what they are doing isn't impressive, but this whole month and beyond is and will be insane. In 2 months, let's see which of all of these huge announcements is still being talked about.
Ha, I know-- I always scoff at those "fastest computer ever" claims-- there are always so many caveats to the statements. That said, the NPU thing is pretty interesting. And I'm now considering picking up a Surface tablet, namely since my old iPad has been straight up stolen from me by my kids...as has my PS5, and my PS4, and my old TV...and half of my shirts...
sigh...
@@TheoreticallyMedia the NPU is something that every single Apple Silicon Chip has had since the M1, so it's not new. But maybe just to the Surfaces. Of course, I guess it all depends on how well it's implemented. I'm sure Apple will be beefing their's up soon too.
Sorry about losing your "toys" to your kids. But I'm sure they're worth it.
Let’s be honest, firing ai shots at Apple right now is like shooting fish in a barrel. Tim Cook should be fired for his total lack of vision in this space.
Moderate agree. I think Tim has been…room temperature milk? I mean, he’s fine, but you nail it with the lack of vision and scope.
That steadfast refusal to refer to AI, and the decision not to lean into it over a year ago? Bad choice.
Dude Apple has also partnered with OpenAI. In literally 15 days Apple is announcing its new OS lines, which also has deep integration with Chat GPT 4o across Mac, iPhone, iPad and AVP. And unlike MS, Apple has been building NPUs into their devices for the last 4 years. The AI race isn’t going to be Apple vs Microsoft. It’s Apple+MS vs Google.
@@harrykatsaros yeah, I’m just disappointed that Apple couldn’t pull it together with Siri, instead of leaning on OAI.
You’re totally right about that battlefield, and you know who gets to double dip in profit? Sam and company.
@@harrykatsaros they partnered with OpenAI because they had no choice having failed to bring their own AI platform to their hardware. You think a security conscious company like Apple want to partner with a closed source company like OpenAI sending their customers private data to them and their data centres? Siri has been an industry joke for years which they totally neglected since they first incorporated it.
Where Tim made his mistake was relying on the Apple mantra “we are not first to market but we perfect the technology”. I can not argue that they have absolutely nailed that in their hardware business, iPhone, iPad etc. However in the AI space that model totally collapses because the pace of development is insane. You don’t have time to perfect today’s AI technology because tomorrow it’s already been superseded. That’s how Apple have dropped the ball, they did not adapt.
My friend, I'm sorry to break it down for you. You seems like one of those Apple fans chatgPT integrated in Windows is way better than the version on the Mac.
Oh, I agree. I'm actually totally platform agnostic! I do have a mac here, but I work on Win machines all the time. I think a wholistic AI that is integrated in via the NPU is fantastic. My concern is more about the Recall feature. I know that it can be turned off-- but, I also know MS has "accidentally" turned on features in the past.
All that said, I might actually buy one of the base models if the reviews are favorable. (I've learned from video games: NEVER pre-order!)
@@TheoreticallyMedia thank you for the kind response..agreed
I can't wait until they add an AI chip to my robot mower! Who knows what patterns it will carve into my lawn.
3:22 "ready to build, explore and maybe dog a few moms?" WTF? Where's Scarlett when you need some clarity?!
Hard pass on Recall. I don't need Microsoft Corporation and the intelligence agencies for whom they've built backdoors (they will claim they didn't, I don't believe them) knowing what I do on my computer.
sorry, we "accidentally" turned on the Recall feature on your machine during a Windows update...7 months ago. We're redoubling our efforts to keep your data private. In the meantime, here is Starbucks gift card for $5. Also, you have to use your Microsoft account to login and redeem it.
I am extremely concerned about this from a developer of IP perspective. As the law states in regard to copyright, Only human-made works can be protected. AI cannot hold or be granted a copyright. People are to declare what was AI and what was human-made and a copyright is either granted or rejected based on that input. AI art, for example, where an individual prompts the AI for the image, cannot attain a copyright. Many people think that is a good thing. Consider this, AI will be embeded into every last tool developers of Intellectual Property use to make, well, everything. We, the humans driving the creation of new IP, will not have a choice but to use AI embeded tools. As a result it will be increasingly harder to legally protect our work. This will leave in a state of "Pay to play" to produce we cant own. Who wins? Microsoft, Open Ai, etc. The owners of the AI platforms. We will basically be paying them to make their content and IP and we will own nothing. Dont bet against that. This is a serious business model on their part.
I see soft is going hard, if Micro is going hard doesn't that make it "Microhard" instead of "Microsoft"?
I am ALL for this rebranding! Microhard it is!!
Surface Pro pre ordered 👌🥂
I might pick up one of the base models just to play around with it!
You should have gone for the Surface Laptop.
You should have gone for the head.
Satya Nadella making Thanos snap ... 😮
Recall = creepy AF
Yeah, don't love it...and don't really trust it. Might still use it? Haha
Everything's a bit creepy until you understand it better and learn to apply it in useful ways.
@@Corteum
That's not at all necessarily true.
@@Corteum that isnt true at all, somethings get way creepier
@@LouisGedo People thought all kinds of things were creepy and basically outlawed them. But the reality is that they simoly didnt understand what they were looking at. lol
blue business suit 💙
Haha, filed under: If you know, you know!
I'm much more interested in weight (with a big screen) than thinness.
Thanks as always good sir!
Hey maybe a cool video idea for the future would be on NPU and LPUs. Really seems like NPU are going to be the way to go moving forward. Im hesitant to spend any real money on hardware yet as its still so iffy as to what will be the final path.
Recall does sound creepy but like is it realllly any different than whats already involved with targeted ads? Not IMO. Especially if all its doing is saving the data on a local embedding database with RAG.
The NPU/LPU explainer video is a great idea! I'll pop that on the list!
And Recall-- yeah, I'm mixed on it. On the one hand, I can see it as pretty handy-- on the other, I can see it as a really slippery slope. Particularly if MS decides to turn it back on "accidentally" during a Win Update. I can see that happening...along with "oh, btw, we collect this data now."
@@TheoreticallyMedia Oh yeah the key detail to me is "well are they just saying its not being used but will be later" although if one could run that 100% locally like with ollama or something it could be fairly cool but yeah MS gatekeeping is scary
Has anyone used Rewind on the Mac?
This is what Microsoft just copied…I liked it but stopped using it after 6 months. As mentioned Apple could just put it into their existing Time Machine backup app, but how useful will it be?
Will companies just ban it or go all in to record every word we say? Either way I could see it useful…but as a on/off feature somewhere in Accessibility settings.
I used Time Machine for awhile back in the day, but eventually the storage size of the backups got a bit unwieldy- and I want to say my Time Machine drive died, and by that point I didn’t see a reason to buy a new drive, plus a backup for the backup!
Cloud storage totally killed Time Machine anyhow.
The screen vision of the AI is interesting. There are AI apps ( for the want of a better name) that trying to see your screen so it can control the cursor and click on links. A basic agent. With OpenAI and Microsoft adding the screen AI that can see what is on your screen, it feels as this is start of an agent that will, on your behalf, take control of your computer and follow through on actions. Your own AI agent. Wow, that got wordy fast.
Yup. Just buy fully into MS. Give them FULL access to your hard drive. Why not? They're better than Apple Macs, right?
That’s the play for all of them. Google owns you on the web, MS owns you on your machine, Apple owns you on Mobile.
It’ll never happen, but imagine if they merged. That’s a horror movie!
Difference is: Apple doesn't take your data. It just locks you into their ecosystem. MS wants EVERYTHING. You can work around Google on the web.
why can't they just give scar-jo a fat pile of money and make everyone happy 😂
I liked the voice
Other than being a bubbly American lady, Sky sounds nothing like Scarlett. I don't get the fuss.
Big Bropilot is watching you
Always watching!!
Yes, since the 70's i believe. You finally caught up lol
yeah, im scared of thin laptops. even TV, i get very nervous.
I dont trust Microsoft nor Facebook with privacy. At all. I know all companies aren't 100% truthful, but, I can see Apple leverage this and really hammer in on their products this year about privacy and AI, Making it local only. Apple really treats privacy seriously in terms of marketing, so because of that, I trust them more than the competition. I can for see Apple talk about privacy and maybe even take jabs at the competition this coming June.
Oh, 100%. I mean, Apple barely lets the FBI into a iPhone.i pretty much trust them with my folders of Midjourney images!
a few days ago apple had a glitch that shows your deleted photos to other people and you are talking about apple's privacy?😂😂😂
@@wixadixa1 Yes. Apples marketing on privacy. I don't know about any glitch. Seems like the mass won't either.
Yeah, nah. Apple doesn't give a shit about privacy. They give a shit about *marketing privacy* only.
@@wixadixa1 Oh man, I missed that! I gotta look that up! Here's hoping someone got access to my 100s of terrible thumbnail selfies making the "youtuber face" 😆
Yeah I don’t suppose all those little AI monitors will have any effect on performance. 😢
Supposedly they’ll run off the NPU to keep from taxing your resources.
…supposedly.
Ram through
Tim, you make computers fun again. :)
Cheers! If you Don't Smash the Thumbs up and Subscribe, You Support 1000 Sad Kitty's in the Rain....

They are comparing 8 core 8 thread M3 processor with 12 core 12 thread X Elite 🤮
We need Scarlett Johansson 😅
Recall being on device seems safer because everyone only worries about big corporations or the gov. knowing what they are doing, but maybe it ends up being the machines themselves that are what we should worry about. They will know everything about you, where you go, what you see, what you do, everything. So on device might not matter because in the end it's the machines you will fear. Whether that's bad AI or what, most of the time we are wrong in what we thought we were right about. I don't think AI as a whole will be evil, but who's running the AI, So I plan to use open source to build my own AI that I can train to protect me, it's worth a shot. You could theoretically teach it to guard you against lots of stuff, and you can trust it more than a corporate AI. Machines, robots whatever embodiment they come in will also have both good and bad forms and fight between themselves most likely.
Sounds like crazy science fiction but so was the Dick Tracy watch and that happened. So I fully believe we are about to enter a new age of AI and we just don't understand what we are creating yet.
Will I get those AI updates in my current Windows Laptop ?
A laptop requires 45 trillion operations per second TOPS processor performance to be branded as an AI laptop. Apple M4 has 38 TOPS. Snapdragon X Elite has 45 TOPS ... ❤🎉😊
When will open AI new voice model publicly available?
Please make a video of how to change images to 3D models for free
Might have something soon for you!
It be nice if it tells me where to build and maybe show highlighted sections to where to place block in minecraft.
I think for now it’ll just be verbal, but agreed! I also think it might be a cool way to say, learn Blender or some other piece of software.
I don't use MS, but I would turn it off immediately. Even after turning it off I wouldn't trust them. I'm fine with my Mac not doing that and just having to ...... remember the blue dress that I searched for a few weeks ago. And if I can't remember it, it was not important enough anyway. But seriously, I'm getting really close to going 100% Linux
I still really want to build a spare Linux machine just to play around with. I’ve never been daring enough to go all in as my main machine, but I’d love to play with it as an option as a B machine!
I would like to tell us the status of Sora development in one of your updates.
Still a holding pattern. Trust me, the minute I get word, I’ll have a video up!!
And still Windows 11 can't automatically sort files and refresh folders, can't properly spell check and so on. Old bugs remain new AI bugs come.
Haha. Smarter bugs!!
@@TheoreticallyMedia I don't know what's better. Old bugs or smarter ones ;)
Im getting the feeling that recall and access to screen capture are about getting more data on general computer use. So to train a "LAM" (large action model) model.
Im not really the tin foil type, but it would be a data set they wouldn't have easy access to.
I still have the feeling that the opt out button will be “mistakenly” turned on during a random Windows Update.
They’ve pulled things like that in the past
Me...I'm Linda in accounting! I really want cocreater. Not sure if I want the rest of it. Lol.
Haha. Hi Linda! I know that expense report from Vegas looks weird, but I can explain!
But yeah, I’m kind of with you as well. What I’m most excited about is anything that can handle admin/email/schedules/reminders. For example, if it sees a receipt in my inbox, it’ll know which ones to send to Linda!
@TheoreticallyMedia the whole presentation was pretty cool. I'm not going to pre-order. Not convinced enough for that yet. But I'll be watching. It's very interesting to me. In addition to the samsung/apple wars, it seems like Windows might be in the game again.
I'm just curious about in between all those "copailots" they are going to ship there will be one for the blue screen of dea**. Seriously i would prefer to hammer my balls in an anvil than letting micro$ucks to have all my private data, sees all i do in my computer and listen all i say. I guess those people doesn't concerned about privacy (like "influencers") will use all this, but if micro$ucks try to force it in all their operating systems i foresee a huge increment in Linux users.
Well shoot was shoping for labtop anyway so will be nice to have all 3 in one
I might pick up the lower end 13 inch to try it out, been kind of needing a PC around to test stuff!
@TheoreticallyMedia yeah what I learned is it is def for beginners snapdragon doesnt cut it cause the chip not better than Intel or ryzen and having an nvidia graphic nothing Beats that for local ai tasks, cpu is important for vr and 3d which it just doesn't cut it n I've been needing laptop so tbd
I would still recommend buying a full gaming grade laptop with Intel + Nvidia RTX graphics cards rather than apple toys ... 😂
Good Info
Thanks much as always!!!
YOU DISSED COMIC SANS! unsubbed
Haha, the most Comic of the Sans! I KNEW I should have gone with Papryus!
👋
Thats a review from bias apple fan. If recall (thats not time machine) was first by Apple he will said that genius.
Nah, I’m pretty platform agnostic. When WWDC happens, I’ll likely be twice as critical.
