星期二,Apple推出一套可能有争议的音频智能功能,与第一个开发商β版本的iOS 27.3和WatchOS 27.3. β带了四个新的AI功能,让Apple Watch Series 12穿戴者能够探测到重要的声音,识别歌曲,赶上对话,并带走指出。
仅一天后,我就能看出其价值可能最终超过人工智能音频录制和总结所产生的任何蠕动因素。 但我也看到AI协助的笔记可能走得太远
前两首,声音和歌曲的探测,不代表潜在的隐私问题;后者是近20年来我们用iPhone所做的。
融资关注的是其他两个功能,这些功能记录,然后转录或总结与Apple Watch所有者和周围的对话。 Live Rewind让你回去看看过去15秒里称是什么,而Siri Recaps则总结了你一整天的音频,节省了指出的重要东西称。
Apple已注意确保这些AI特性的隐私,在可能时处理音频和运行AI模型端侧,以及不识别扬声器,存储原始音频文件,并编辑私人信息,如政府身份证号码或个人账户信息。
科技总是在倾听。
我发现自己同情这两个营地。 我经常叹息我们让科技在日常生活中变得如此普及
我还没有合适的时间去测试Live Rewind,如果我错过了称的东西
但随着Siri Recaps的出现,我立刻看到了如何成为我经常依赖的功能,为日后节省重要的指出。
我昨天在现实世界中测试了这个特点,当时我们放下十几岁的车去修理,在这两个地方,雇员都分享了大量关于时间框架、价格和口头交付的政策的信息。 消息来得太快,无法停止和记录任何东西。 然而,当我在当天晚些时候回到Siri Recaps时,它掌握了我可能需要提及的关键细节。
例如,它注意到了可以扣除的,修理的时间框架,我们最初租房时的煤气量,以及我想记住的其他东西。
一个投诉是,Siri Recaps将这一信息与后来在家中讨论的其他议题混为一谈,比如我们需要执行的一项任务,以及这个星期什么时候看孩子,我们正在讨论一些事情,以便在家庭日历上安排一个适当的警戒时间。
我认为,这些物品应该保存在一份单独的说明中,题为“家庭时间表和杂务”,而不是在车辆修理的同一说明中,而是放在一个单独的标题下。
由于我配置了Siri Recaps来随时运行,它也捕捉到一些非基本的东西,比如我们在电视上观看中期报道的"计划",而这不是你通常会写下一个注释的东西。 这还清楚地提醒我们,该节目正在听取我们日常谈话。 如果讨论的主题更具有个人性质
因此家庭餐桌闲聊不会成为食材。
虽然我很感激《回顾》从其中的一次家庭对话中得到了关于我需要跑掉的一件事的提醒,但是它所节省的其他数字——就像我们在电视上看到的一样——只有在你向Apple的《日刊》应用程序出口Siri Recap便条时才有价值,因为这是你出于个人原因想要记录的东西。
我希望看到这些无关的细节保存为单独的指出
而不是只得进入编辑模式,放置cursor
我希望有另一个选项是设置允许您自动将任何保存的Siri Recap(您点击书签图标保存的)导出到Apple的指出app,而不是作为额外的步骤。
这些复刻可以进入指出应用中自己的文件夹以方便参考。 我能理解为什么这个选项不是默认的,因为有多少不同的方式人们使用像指出这样的通用应用。 然而,对于我们中那些希望把指出作为我们所有催复提醒和待办事宜的中心起点的人来说,这将是有用的。
虽然我并没有立刻热衷于我的守望组织总是在倾听的想法

On Tuesday, Apple rolled out a potentially controversial set of Audio Intelligence features into testing with the first developer beta versions of iOS 27.3 and watchOS 27.3. The betas bring four new AI features that allow Apple Watch Series 12 wearers to detect important sounds, identify songs, catch up on conversations, and take notes.
After just a day with Apple’s Siri Recaps feature on my Apple Watch, I can already see how its value may ultimately outweigh any creepiness factor that comes from the AI-powered audio recording and summarization it provides. However, I also see areas where AI-assisted note-taking can go too far, capturing things that aren’t worth remembering, and where there’s room for improvement.
The first two, sound and song detection, don’t represent potential privacy concerns; they are designed to detect either important sounds — like an alarm or doorbell — or identify a song using Shazam’s technology. The former helps deaf and hard-of-hearing users navigate the world, and the latter is something we’ve already done with our iPhone for nearly two decades now.
It’s the two other features, Live Rewind and Siri Recaps, that have raised concerns. The features record and then transcribe or summarize the conversations happening with and around the Apple Watch’s owner. Live Rewind lets you go back to see what was said in the past 15 seconds, while Siri Recaps summarize audio throughout your day, saving notes of the important things that were said.
Apple has taken care to ensure the privacy of these AI features by processing the audio and running AI models on-device, when possible, and by not identifying speakers, storing raw audio files, and redacting private information, like government ID numbers or personal account information.
Still, some are put off by the idea that we’re now normalizing the idea that technology is always listening.
I find myself sympathizing with both camps. I often lament that we’ve allowed technology to become so pervasive in our daily lives, but I still see the value in what Apple has built.
I haven’t yet had an appropriate time to test Live Rewind, nor do I think this will be a feature I use as often. I’m more likely to say “sorry, what?” or “can you repeat that?” if I missed something that was said, before turning to my Apple Watch for help.
But with Siri Recaps, I immediately saw how this could become a feature I rely on regularly to save important notes for later.
I was able to test the feature in a real-world scenario yesterday, when we were dropping off my teen’s car for repairs and picking up a rental. At both places, employees shared a lot of information about time frames, prices, and policies that were delivered verbally. The information came too fast to stop and write anything down. Yet when I returned to Siri Recaps later in the day, it had captured key details that I may need to refer back to.
For instance, it noted the deductible, the repair time frame, the amount of gas we had in the rental at the start, and other things I wanted to remember.
One complaint is that Siri Recaps had mixed this information with other topics that were later discussed in the home, like an errand we needed to run and what time babysitting was this week, something we were discussing in order to create an appointment on the family calendar with an appropriate alert time frame.
I think these items should have been saved in a separate note titled “family schedule and errands,” rather than in the same note with the car repairs, but under a separate heading.
Because I configured Siri Recaps to run at all times, it also captured non-essential things, like our “plan” to watch the midterms coverage on TV, which is not the kind of thing you’d normally jot down a note about. It also was a stark reminder that the feature was listening in on our everyday conversations. That’s something that could feel invasive in different scenarios, if the subject being discussed was more personal in nature.
This had me considering turning off the Recap feature while at home in the evening, so family dinner table chatter doesn’t become note fodder.
While I appreciated that the Recap picked up a reminder about an errand I needed to run from one of the family conversations, other tidbits it saved — like what we were watching on TV — would only be valuable if you were exporting a Siri Recap note to Apple’s Journal app, because it was something you wanted to record for personal reasons.
I’d like to see these sorts of extraneous details saved as separate notes — or at least as dedicated sections that could be exported or deleted on their own at the end of the day.
I’d also love to be able to swipe left on an individual bullet point to remove it from the Siri Recap entirely, rather than having to enter edit mode, place the cursor, and then start deleting the text I don’t need.
Another option I’d like to have would be a setting that would allow you to automatically export any saved Siri Recap (the ones you click the bookmark icon to save) to Apple’s Notes app, instead of that being an extra step.
These Recaps could go into their own folder in the Notes app for easy reference. I can understand why this option is not the default, given how many different ways people use a general-purpose app like Notes. However, it would be useful for those of us who want to keep Notes as the central starting point for all our jotted-down reminders and to-dos.
Though I wasn’t immediately warmed up to the idea that my Watch was always listening, so to speak, I see the value of this sort of automated note-taking in daily life.
