Microsoft and Intel revealed that they are working together to do more functional the Cortana. According to the latest news, Microsoft's personal assistant will be able to activate your personal computer as well.
Intel he revealed that in collaboration with Microsoft for Cortana, they intend to use long distance speech recognition technologies. So users will be able to operate their computers through the digital assistant. 
In other words, you can shout "Hey, Cortana" to your computer from another room and Windows 10 will start.
But if you think about it a little bit more, you will see that this news is causing ambivalence. Are we happy or worried?
In fact, what Microsoft tells us is that it will be able to hear what's going on in our house, even in the next room.
I do not think that I am a destroyer, but this is a great concern to me.
Why
Okay, let Microsoft get the data, let those who choose it rejoice. After all, you have all agreed to the terms of use product(although I think the terms should be changed for that particular feature). But if Microsoft can, why can't someone who has a zero day in their hands listen to what is happening inside our homes?
Why not have access to this data and the secret or public services;
At the moment we do not have information για το πόσα θα μπορεί να ακούει η ψηφιακή βοηθός, το εύρος, αν θα μπορεί να ξεχωρίσει φωνές σε θορυβώδη περιβάλλοντα, αν τα δεδομένα θα συλλέγονται με telemetry, and who will have access… (and don't expect Microsoft to mention who will actually have access).
And while Intel says:
"We see a world of opportunities with artificial intelligence. "Our engineers are working closely with Microsoft to add long-distance speech recognition and improved voice activation to computers, which will make them much smarter." We need to prepare for what's to come.
I think that in the coming years, the NSA actions we learned from Snowden will be guilty of what comes to us and we simply accept it as a new technology.
We should probably all accept that there will be no more privacy, with or without a computer, telephone, refrigerator, toaster, etc…
