Microsoft’s New AI Features Are Aimed to Enhance Privacy in Windows 11

Microsoft has announced a major update to Windows 11, introducing new AI-powered features while reinforcing its commitment to privacy and responsible innovation. The rollout includes capabilities like Recall (preview), Click to Do (preview), and enhanced Windows Search, available initially on Copilot+ PCs.

 What drives all of these updates is Microsoft’s commitment to Responsible AI, which is driven by principles that include fairness, reliability and security, transparency, and inclusiveness. AI capabilities such as Recall will be under the complete control of the user and will continue to be an optional experience, including options that users can control regarding their data, privacy, and security. Snapshots taken by Recall are processed locally, encrypted, and protected within isolated memory environments, ensuring user data stays secure
