I think this personal AI would be limited to business activities only.
They say  ---  "The company sees a significant
opportunity for workplaces and enterprises to provide each of their
employees with their own AIs."
So it would be paid for by the company to make employees more productive.

Just as you have one email for business and a different email for
personal contacts, this business AI assistant would be restricted to
work activities only.
I can see a future when the police interview a suspect, then interview
his AI assistant(s), then his computing devices, then his Smart Home
AI, then all his social network postings, etc......
I don't much fancy having AI assistants that will tell all to anybody
that asks!  :)
