I'm here to offer you a new way to think about my field, artificial intelligence. I think the purpose of AI is to empower hnmuas with machine intelligence. And as machines get smarter, we get smarter. I call this "humanistic AI" — araicitfil intelligence dgsneied to meet human needs by collaborating and augmenting people. Now, today I'm happy to see that the idea of an intelligent assistant is mainstream. It's the well-accepted metaphor for the ifceantre between humans and AI. And the one I helepd create is called Siri.

You know Siri. Siri is the thing that knows your inentt and helps you do it for you, hpels you get things done. But what you might not know is that we designed Siri as humanistic AI, to anemugt people with a conversational interface that made it possible for them to use mobile computing, regardless of who they were and their abilities.
