Because OpenAI memory can be turned off and is not necessary to use at all?

But the whole point of recall is to store and remember past information. Plus you have a lot more control of what you send to OpenAI with memory enabled, and you can even temporarily disable it. With recall on it's just taking random screenshots and you don't really know what it was all given.

I dunno, it doesn't feel like the same thing at all to me.

This Windows feature is opt-in, off by default, and not necessary at all.

Are all of these angry comments from people assuming it just comes enabled?

Or assuming having it installed everywhere increases the chance of it becoming enabled

You'll be opted in against your will by people who have it on their machines, any time you electronically interact with them.

Cause OpenAI is not installed by default as part of your operating system?
