To Microsoft, sure. But what about the users? Which problem or problems were being solved?
Biggest impact is accessibility. Think people with memory issues or blind. This tech will change their lives.
This isn't an unreasonable suggestion, but I'm not seeing accessibility mentioned anywhere on the Recall site. For those with sight issues, I'm unclear on how the process would be with the necessary screen-reader that MS is silent on compatibility with. Sure, text to voice is a thing, but that would only be useful at home unless you really want to have a computer read out loud everything it's got in Recall.
I’m talking more abstractly about the tech vs your concrete here today Microsoft Recall implementation of the tech. It’s unfortunate M$ isn’t working towards accessibility now, but this tech will enable such things.
