Microsoft announced on Thursday that it will delay the rollout of its new AI-powered feature, "Recall," due to privacy and security concerns. Originally set to launch with new computers next week, the feature will instead be previewed with a smaller group via the Windows Insider Program (WIP) in the coming weeks.

Microsoft's decision to delay the broad release of Recall is based on its commitment to ensuring a trusted, secure, and robust experience for all customers. The company aims to gather additional feedback before making the feature available to all Copilot+ PC users.

"We are adjusting the release model for Recall to leverage the expertise of the Windows Insider community to ensure the experience meets our high standards for quality and security. This decision is rooted in our commitment to providing a trusted, secure, and robust experience for all customers and to seek additional feedback before making the feature available to all Copilot+ PC users. "

Microsoft is committed to empowering users and organizations while maintaining privacy, security, and trust. The feedback from consumers, developers, and enterprises is crucial for evolving these experiences. The upcoming launch of Copilot+ PCs on June 18 will introduce innovative new features and benefits, with a continued focus on privacy, safety, and security.
