Read the Apple document explaining how new listening features still protect your privacy
Apple unveiled new Siri AI Audio Intelligence features—Siri Recap, Live Rewind, Sound Recognition, and Music Recognition—at the iPhone Duo launch, and released a technical document detailing privacy safeguards. The document states that raw audio is processed exclusively within the Secure Enclave of the S11 chip, never saved as a file and inaccessible to the OS, apps, or Apple, including on the Apple Watch Series 12 and Watch Ultra 4.
