Please, create a new phone. Even if it is worse in most things compared to iphone and android, I will use it. If it just runs Linux I will buy many for my whole family.
- derstander 2y agoI don’t particularly see the connection between Ive, OpenAI, and a new phone but are you maybe just looking for something like a PinePhone? I don’t use one but I have followed the company for some time due to their low cost laptops that run Linux (PineBook, PineBook Pro). https://pine64.org/devices/pinephone/ https://pine64.org/devices/pinephone/ Edit: oh, I see. I automatically assumed the device referenced in the article would be something like those smart home speakers that one can talk to.
- sabbaticaldev 2y ago> I don’t particularly see the connection between Ive, OpenAI, and a new phone Smartphones are the most used device nowadays. A home assistant would not be used most of the times by many that don't stay at home most of the day. If OpenAI wants to get into hardware market it would make sense to enter the biggest market available. Microsoft won't try a third attempt at creating Windows Mobile but it makes sense for them to try again through OpenAI.
- derstander 2y agoThis is all true. My naïveté is showing; I assumed if they were developing a phone they’d just say so outright. I guess I don’t understand what benefits being vague about the kind of device gets them.
- piyuv 2y agoAre you seriously expecting a Linux phone from Sam Altman and Johnny Ive?
- meiraleal 2y agoI'm not expecting them to use iOS. Are you seriously expecting Sam Altman and Johnny Ive to create an OS from zero? And succeed? That's an "impressive" reasoning.
