Neil Patel predicts that OpenAI will eventually make a device that is essentially a phone, even if not marketed as such.
“I think based on the constraints of the market, this is the only piece of hardware OpenAI can ship. Why do you say that? We'll just run down the meta glasses problem that we run down every week. Sure. If you wanna have an AI device that is consistently doing things for you that isn't a phone, and I think for a lot of reasons, OpenAI cannot make a phone. I think it's going to. It's gonna have to be on record. I think it will make a thing that is they may not call it a phone, but it will very obviously be a phone.”
