Watch out: Apple timepiece can grab snippets of conversation without both speakers' consent

Apple's Watch Series 12 Live Rewind and Siri Recap transcribe nearby conversations without bystander consent, drawing EFF criticism over all-party-consent laws.

Apple Watch Series 12's Audio Intelligence features on the S11 chip include Live Rewind, which transcribes the last 15 seconds of a conversation after a Digital Crown double-press, processing audio in a Secure Exclave and routing it to a nearby iPhone. Siri Recap generates AI summaries of daily conversations without retaining raw audio or attributing speakers. Apple says an audible chime and visual cue alert bystanders, but privacy advocates including the EFF note that 11 US states require all-party consent for recording and that bystanders have no practical way to opt in or decline.

Apple CEO John Ternus says the best AI device is still the iPhone

Apple CEO John Ternus said the iPhone is the best AI device, emphasizing on-device processing and privacy in Apple's AI strategy.

At Apple's Surprise and Shine event, new CEO John Ternus, who succeeded Tim Cook (now executive chairman), framed the iPhone as the ideal 'intelligent personal hub' for AI. He listed requirements including on-device AI processing, personal context awareness, high-quality cameras and microphones, long battery life, and seamless integration with other devices. Ternus contrasted Apple's privacy-first approach with rivals' data collection, saying Apple Intelligence runs on device whenever possible.
