There's a new word to know in the world of AI: "Slop" Found an AI generated article that seems like it's regurgitated garbage? Well, there's a word for that!

Microsoft is effectively putting the launch of one of its new AI features on hold because of security concerns 

The new Copilot Plus PCs come with a features called "Recall" which effectively takes screenshots of what you're doing and stores them so you can go back to check what that price was for that item, or recover a sentence from an email you decided you preferred. 

The feature was going to be turned on by default, which only last week Microsoft reversed, announcing it would be "opt-in" and include additional secure login requirements.
