Sound recognition? Is this an always on thing in iphones. I hope it doesn't get sent back to servers or something

It’s all done on-device

(also I'm fvcking tired of privacy extremists on here. if something is proprietary it doesn't mean that it uploads literally everything to the server, on-device processing is still a thing y'know)

Unfortunately even if this is initially processed locally, there's a significant risk that results and/or samples are still sent back. manufacturers have shown on multiple occasions that the allure of data they can leverage is too much to resist.

Somebody mentioned their Google Takeout (export of Google data) contained audio of them using the Google assistant. So Apple could technically do the same thing.

I'm not a privacy extremist, I just want to understand how technology works and how you should be using things in order to be safe online.
