Supposedly you can turn it off - if you upgrade to Windows 11, you have the option to turn off the automatic AI recording feature known as "Recall." To disable Recall, you can follow these steps:
Open Settings on Windows 11.
Click on Privacy & security.
Select the Recall & snapshots page.
Turn off the Save snapshots toggle switch.
Additionally, if you want to delete any snapshots that have already been saved, you can do so in the same section by clicking the Delete all button¹.
It's also possible to disable the Recall feature through the Registry or Group Policy Editor for more advanced control. Microsoft provides these options to ensure users can manage their privacy and security according to their preferences.
Even if that toggle works I'd expect then to randomly turn it back on after an update or two. Microsoft has been known to fuck with settings that you turned off or on.

"Oops, disabling it didn't actually work and we still took all your data!" 🙄
