Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 to Gain New AI Feature That Summarizes Your Day
The Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 models set to be unveiled today include a new privacy-focused feature that can analyze your day and provide a summary of what took place, including conversations you've had, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.

Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 to Gain New AI Feature That Summarizes Your Day
The Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 models set to be unveiled today include a new privacy-focused feature that can analyze your day and provide a summary of what took place, including conversations you've had, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
Gurman says the feature is designed to compete with the wave of recent AI wearables that promise to log and recall a user's day. Unlike some of those devices, Apple's system apparently cannot show a transcript and does not record or store audio, which is a distinction Apple is likely to promote on given the privacy concerns raised by always-listening AI hardware.
The feature will arrive alongside the new "Readiness" app, a variant of the existing Vitals app that Apple is introducing to compete more directly with wearable fitness software from Oura and Whoop. Readiness draws on the Apple Watch's sensor array, including heart rate and blood-oxygen data, and Apple is pairing the new health and fitness features with a revamped Health app for the iPhone.
The Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 will also receive new color options along with changes to the case and bands. The Series 12 will bring back a ceramic case option for the first time since the Apple Watch Series 5. The Ultra 4 will purportedly tout improved battery life.
Both devices are expected to be revealed later today at Apple's "Surprise and Shine" event.
