The new features will include Windows Recall, giving the #AI assistant what Microsoft describes as “photographic memory” of a person’s virtual activity. Microsoft promises to protect users’ #privacy by giving them the option to filter out what they don’t want tracked, and keeping the tracking on the device.

Of course, the company, which has never been known for its extensive security efforts, guarantees security and privacy. It sounds more like a horror story to me if Microsoft now collects even more data.

Microsoft’s new AI-enabled laptops will have a ‘photographic memory’ of your virtual activity

It's a step toward machines that “instantly see us, hear, reason about our intent and our surroundings,” said CEO Satya Nadella.

Starting next Monday, May 13, the enterprise #hardware slinger plans to make weekly site visit data from its badge #tracking available to #employees through the corporation's human capital #management #software and to give them color-coded ratings that summarize their #status. Those #ratings are:

1. Blue flag indicates "consistent onsite presence"
2. Green flag indicates "regular onsite presence"
3. Yellow flag indicates "some onsite presence"
4. Red flag indicates "limited onsite presence"

They rate their employees according to attendance and not performance. Can you really be that silly?
