New Apple Watch AI features hint at how Apple plans to address privacy concerns in future smart glasses

Apple’s introduction today of the Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12 marks a significant milestone in the devices’ history. The addition of two new agentic tools—Live Rewind and Siri Recap—repositions the wearables from devices primarily focused on health to ones that also act as an always-listening AI assistant strapped to your wrist. Of course, with these features come privacy concerns—not just for the person wearing the Apple Watch, but for those around them.
