Do we really need AI-powered fitness advice?

. The AI interface is likely to interact with Fitness Plus – based on your current training, sleep and recovery metrics, the AI will probably recommend particular Apple Fitness Plus workouts to you. . So we can see a bumper “master subscription” to both health-based services in the pipeline. However, this is all speculation.

Getting recommended workouts on your watch isn’t a new idea – thehave been doing it for ages, and it works very well. However, Garmin’s recommended workouts are based on the Firstbeat Analytics algorithm. Which, while sophisticated, isn’t an artificial intelligence and can’t 'learn' as such – merely interpret data.

What happens if the AI recommends potentially dangerous exercises or harmful diet choices? How can it cover everyone's needs except in very broad strokes, such as"eat more protein to build muscle"? If Apple is looking into this as a potential feature or subscription service, they should be treading very carefully.
