Key Takeaways

Full Transcript
Microsoft are telling us that C-Pilot plus PC is the future. They say empowering the future, the expanding ARM app ecosystem for C-Pilot plus PC. I don't know. Here's a co-pilot plus PC. And in my testing, I can't say I'm impressed. I don't think it's very good. The register says something very similar. Microsoft insists co-pilot plus PCs are empowering the future. Reality disagrees. The latest marketing blitz for a solution seeking a problem and a killer app. Very much agree with this. In my tests, I thought this isn't very good. Doesn't support a lot of applications. Just have a look at how bad this is. Here I am remotely controlling this computer from my Mac. So I am using BNC to control this Windows computer. And I have enabled recall. I cannot imagine why you'd ever want this software. This is just more spyware from Microsoft. Mad that you'd ever want to run this. And notice here, recall is supposed to be secure, but I can remotely just by using a pin view information on Microsoft on this computer, including passwords. Here's my password in clear text. Hello, 123. My password, password has been captured. Credit card information has been captured. Now, I have purposely blurred some of the credit card information here, but notice password is there. And recall can actually copy that information. I cannot see why you'd want to use a co-pilot plus PC laptop except if you want Microsoft spying more on you. The register as always is funny because it says according to Microsoft the introduction of co-pilot plus PCs marks a significant moment for the PC industry. This is undoubtedly true for AI PC makers. It's not so much a benefit to users as it is for the bottom line of the hardware brands and Microsoft itself. HP, for example, stated that AI PCs now account for a quarter of sales with their higher price tags contributing to revenue growth. Dell and Intel have in a similar way been pushing AI ready technology on customers. The register says that they've looked at this themselves and found out that businesses just don't care about features such as recall. I think it's a privacy nightmare. Microsoft likes to try try and try again to convince customers that it knows best, but I cannot imagine why you'd want Microsoft spying on you more than they're doing already. and why you would want all this data stored which could result in a hacker getting information to your entire life because of all the screenshots that this computer is taking at the moment. Copilot Plus PC can't see the reason to buy this. Go and buy an Intel or AMD. Probably AMD is better at the moment, but uh with all the investments from Nvidia and the US government into Intel, hopefully Intel will come back again. Am I wrong about this? Would you buy a co-pilot plus PC, laptop or device today or just use AMD or
Original Description
I tested a Copilot+ PC (Snapdragon X-family ARM chip )with Microsoft Recall on and saw passwords and card data show up in captures over remote access. Here’s why privacy, security, and app support make me wary.
