## Summary

A Qualcomm-commissioned Personal AI report, based on a survey of more than 12,000 people in six countries, finds 60 percent of wearable owners use AI at least weekly. Respondents want connected devices coordinated by a personal AI agent, and nearly 60 percent want to keep wearable data private or approve its sharing.
