Microsoft is going through some pretty tough times right now. A month ago, the company had a bold and ambitious vision for the future of Windows. Everything was going as planned, but as the big launch day approached, things started to get complicated. Having run into trouble with Qualcomm, Microsoft had to make new plans for Copilot+ PCs. Here are the details…
Copilot+ and Qualcomm crisis at Microsoft
Microsoft Copilot+ PCs were equipped with AI features and this created great excitement. However, the feature called Recall gave access to the user’s entire app and website history and could search this data in natural language. It seemed like a great idea at first. However, security experts revealed that this feature carries great risks.
Recall could not adequately protect users’ information, and hacking this data was possible with only two lines of code. Realizing this situation, Microsoft turned the Recall feature off by default and announced that users had to enable it manually. However, this was not enough and Microsoft announced that Recall would not be included in the launch. Now the company is working hard to close these vulnerabilities.
Microsoft is shocked! Windows 11 Recall feature worked on old device
Windows 11 Recall feature worked on older ARM-based hardware. How did this feature on the new Copilot Plus PCs work?
What Microsoft plans to use in Copilot+ PCs Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X chips is the source of another problem. Qualcomm is in great uncertainty due to its legal problems with Arm. Arm claims that licensing agreements were violated after Qualcomm acquired the company called Nuvia. If this dispute is not resolved, the launch of Microsoft’s new devices could be severely disrupted. In this case, all of Microsoft’s plans may fail.
Microsoft is making intense efforts to solve all these problems. Work continues to resolve security concerns and resolve legal issues with Qualcomm. However, Apple’s AI achievements and security measures put Microsoft in a difficult situation. Apple has gained the trust of its users by making great strides in AI security, which has led to a huge increase in its stock.
