In Microsoft's land of tech so fine,
A new tool rolled out, with AI so divine,
Copilot+ Recall, a feature so grand,
Taking snapshots every few seconds in hand.
It's available now, in preview mode so bright,
For some users with Microsoft's AI PCs and laptops in sight,
The relaunch of a feature, once called a "nightmare" so bold,
Now with opt-in, users can control what's to be told.
In the EU, they'll have to wait a bit more time,
Until 2025, when the feature will be on their mind,
But worldwide, it's coming, don't you fret or fear,
Just remember, you can opt-out, and Recall will disappear.
The purpose is to search, through past activity so neat,
Files, photos, emails, and browsing history to repeat,
Just like finding a dress, you saw online one day,
Recall will help you locate, in a most efficient way.
But Dr. Kris Shrishak, a privacy campaigner so wise,
Still has some concerns, and a skeptical surprise,
He says it's an improvement, but still a risk so high,
Information about others, might be captured, and pass by.
