The inventor of Siri says one day AI will be used to upload and access our memories

Artificial intelligence may one day surpass human intelligence. But, if designed right, it may also be used to enhance human cognition. Tom Gruber, one of the inventors of the artificial intelligence voice interface Siri that now lives inside iPhones and the macOS operating system, shared a new idea at the TED 2017 conference today for using artificial intelligence to augment human memory. "What if you could have a memory that was as good as computer memory and is about your life?" Gruber asked the audience. "What if you could remember every person you ever met? The last conversation you had with them?" Gruber said he thinks that using artificial intelligence to catalog our experiences and to enhance our memory isn't just a wild idea -- it's inevitable.
