    Lol, apple is not logging what your doing, the apple AI just has access to that data directly, no need to copy data from apps you already Control. AppleAI is just a Process that has Access to a lot of data, un fact, any data that any app offer through the API Apple Designes. So that means the AppleAI sees only what the dev of the app want the AppleAI to see. Best case, you can set what you want to give appleAI access to in each app.

    I want to ask you, where do you see the difference to Spotlight? Spotlight is also a Process that scanns all your data…

      For the record, MS also had stated that users can exclude specific applications from Recall and devs can exclude specific screens or content from being recorded.

      I’m not sure that “Apple already indexes and has unfettered access to all your granular data” isa good defense, either. That’s… worse. Although for what it’s worth it does seem like this AI thing is way more intrusive than Spotlight, in that it’s not just searching keywords inside files it can parse, it is connecting data from multiple sources to generate context about you, some of which is being processed off-site. I don’t think it’s as easily expoitable as the 1.0 version of Recall MS described, but if your concern is with an AI or a corporation having access to information, or to compromising information being accessed through easy search by anybody with local access… well, yeah, it’s all degrees of bad here.

      Didn’t you and I already litigate this in a different thread? I’d rather not rehash that.

        It is not defence for god sake 😂 I wanted to Point out, that apple has not planned to add somthing like recall to their Systems.

        Recall is not the same as copilot!

        Racall is not the same as AppleAI.

        But AppleAI is pretty much the same as Copilot.

        AppleAI does nothiing, if you don‘t use a Feature that sends a promt to it.

        Copilot neither.

        Only the recall Feature Collecting data that did not exist before that Feature started.

        And I think apple has not more data now with appleAI about you than before. If they want your data, iCloud has it all, either you use apple and don‘t care or not. Suddenly stopping to use Apple devices because of AppleAI makes no sense, most likely the same for Microsoft, if recall is opt in.
