Apple CEO Tim Cook says you won't have to give up your privacy to have a great AI assistant

#artificialintelligence

Apple CEO Tim Cook doesn't think the future of artificial intelligence will infringe on users' privacy, the way it does now. Responding to a question about Apple's virtual assistant Siri on a call to discuss the company's latest quarterly earnings, Cook said: "In terms of the balance of privacy and AI, this is a long conversation, but at a high level, this is a false tradeoff. People would like you to believe you have to give up privacy to have AI do something for you, but we don't buy that. It might take more work, it might take more thinking, but I don't think we should throw our privacy away. You shouldn't have to make a choice."
