What happened
A sponsored report commissioned by Qualcomm surveyed over 12,000 people globally on their attitudes toward personal AI and intelligent wearables. The findings indicate that 60-70% of consumers are interested in advanced AI when considering new devices, favoring connected ecosystems managed by voice-activated AI agents over standalone hardware. However, nearly 60% of respondents emphasized the need for strict privacy, security, and user control over personal data.
