In reality, I think we're quite a few generations away from being able to go without a screen (as the Humane Pin has demonstrated) - and I'm sure Apple will be ready with a better AI Pin when the time comes. For the time being, this sits very nicely on an iPhone.

- mft_ 2y agoI agree that the pace of change makes such predictions risky, but as these assistants become more capable, and are able to perform more complex tasks on your behalf, I think the need to check their plans becomes more important - at least for a period. For example, if you ask your AI assistant to book airport parking, flights, transfers, activities, and a hotel for a holiday, it'll be a long while (if ever?) before you trust it so much to let it pay for those things without a sense-check first. And visual checks will be a magnitude faster than it reading everything out to you. Edit: and just to be clear, by 'generations' I was meaning tech generations (i.e. of phones, or GPTs) not humans!
