Recall AI: A New Feature for Copilot Plus PCs

Hey folks! I just stumbled upon something pretty cool that I think you'll all find interesting, especially if you're into the latest AI tools from Microsoft. Let’s talk about Recall AI, a new feature that’s being tested for Copilot Plus PCs!

So, what's Recall AI all about? Imagine being able to take a snapshot of whatever you're doing on your PC, apps you’ve opened, web pages you're browsing, even files you’re working on, and saving it all so you can pick up exactly where you left off, any time you need. This is essentially what Recall AI aims to do. It allows you to create a "snapshot" of your desktop activities, making it searchable and restorable later. It's almost like creating a bookmark for your entire digital workspace!

The best part? It looks like this feature will be super useful for those of us who juggle tons of tasks throughout the day. Imagine working on a project, needing to step away, and then being able to instantly get back into the same flow, with all your apps and files exactly how you left them. No more scrambling to remember what you were doing or which tabs you had open, just one click, and you're back in action. I think it could be a huge productivity booster, especially for students, developers, and anyone managing complex projects.

Right now, Recall AI is available for Windows Insiders testing the Copilot Plus version, but Microsoft is planning to roll it out more widely once they work out any kinks. The feedback so far seems pretty promising, and I can see this becoming a go-to feature for a lot of people once it launches more broadly.

I’m curious, though, what do you all think? Do you think a feature like Recall AI would fit into your workflow? Personally, I love the idea of being able to quickly save a state and jump back in later, especially on those chaotic days when I’m bouncing between different projects. Would love to hear your thoughts and if you see this being a game changer for your productivity!

Let’s discuss!

Recall AI does sound like a potentially really interesting development to me, as somebody who works for a charity and is often involved in multiple different projects, it'd be fantastic to have an option to click a couple of buttons and have my whole task focus change between different states.

Co-pilot has always been useful to me in my work, even if it's just the ability to write most of my emails for me. Co-pilot can help me write an email that five years ago would take me 10 minutes in sometimes less than a minute, so it has undoubtedly been game-changing for productivity.

That’s such a great point! Recall AI really does sound like a dream come true for juggling multiple projects. Imagine being able to switch focus with just a couple of clicks, no more trying to mentally untangle yourself from one project before diving into the next. It’s like giving your brain its own “tab switcher.”

As for Co-pilot, I completely agree, it’s a lifesaver! The time it saves on emails alone is priceless. I mean, who knew we’d live in a world where “writer’s block” could be cured by an AI in under a minute? I just hope Co-pilot doesn’t start charging us by the word... or I might need to take out a second mortgage for all those long-winded emails it’s helped me with.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts @fdk1971 , AI tools like these are definitely changing the game, especially for multitaskers like you and us.
