As one of the fervent 500 million daily GPT users it’s a no brainer for Open AI to create a personal mobile AI device or an AI phone with GPT accessible right from your Lock Screen. It could… - interface with AI Agents( businesses, friends & family’s agents, etc) to get things done & used as a knowledgeable. Once u pick up the device it’s like a FaceTime call with your AI agent/friend in which u can skin to look however u want (a deceased loved one ..tho that might be too out there). - It visually surfs the Web with you.. making u not open a web browser as much - take the best selfies of u…gets you to the best lighting. Overall excited to see their vision and leave/drop Apple’s now boring iPhone for a GPT phone or personal mobile AI device. I think a phone form factor would be best, but we’ll see.

And you seriously think Ive could be responsible for leading this effort?

      Obviously the plan is to bring back Jobs 2.0 AI Edition as a conversational agent and personal coach. Apple certainly aren't going to do it, so who better than Ive?

How did that work for the Facebook phone? And all their billions of fervent Facebook users? Google own this space - pixel phones already do pretty much all of this, and they have the best models and the most users too. No built in agentic capabilities yet, but I am sure that is just a month or two away (see project mariner). If you've not tried the pixel photo ai features already, you may be surprised. Things like changing lighting, removing people from the shot, auto-stitching people into a group photo, composites group photos so you get one photo where everyone is smiling and looking at the camera at the same time even if that never happened etc, text-editing photos etc. Gemini live is like a facetime call without the 3d avatar but we've seen they can do it with Veo3 already if they wanted. This is all reality today already in the hands of billions of Google users, so OpenAI have a bit of a hill to climb: OpenAI would need to not only catch up with Google (both in AI space which they seem incapable of doing right now but also in product too) and surpass them. Google are totally integrated in this space - the device, the software, the AI models, the infrastructure, the data, the sites/apps people use (search, Gmail, maps, YouTube, docs, ...) and also the billions of users. I doubt OpenAI can really make a dent here. I suspect any OpenAI-Phone will be quietly discontinued like the Facebook phone

  Maybe time will tell ..myself never to excited about a Facebook phone but I am a big Meta Ray Ban wearer/user. Not sure smart glasses will be big but I lean on indeed they will be just not replace our pocket mobile devices (can’t take selfies with glasses).

    Had Google not stopped producing and iterating on Google Glass, we would have HUDs in our eyeglass frames, that would be useful. I'm shocked that nobody has reproduced Google Glass. It was great even back then and it didn't take much to understand its usefulness. No company that I am aware of has produced anything like it since
