We’re in an era of "subscription fatigue" and smartphone makers adding another monthly fee could be a tough sell

I’m all for AI—if it actually does something useful. But features like swiping to remove unwanted items or ensuring everyone smiles in a photo don’t count. For anything genuinely useful, I’d rather subscribe to an AI service separately than pay a premium to have it locked to my phone. I want access from my PC too.

This makes sense, AI is a new phenomena and most people aren't using it on their phones as much as they use SM apps, camera. Battery life is one of the major reasons why people upgrade their phone (believe it or not, many don't just replace their battery)

This can't be right. I've been hearing about how great AI is for the past year now. It couldn't be that media outlets just report on whatever they think will generate the most revenue.

I still can't control my iPhone with my voice in the car. Siri doesn't work well for me. Maybe there is another way I have missed, but I'm amazed this functionality is still lacking.

A bit of a chicken and egg problem, isn’t it? Since really useful AI feature’s don’t really exist yet, why would one expect the general public to want it?

Making things easier to google is IMO the least-impressive use of LLMs. I'm still waiting for a Roomba I can have a conversation with.

GPT-4o is helpful, and so is NotebookLM. The problem is that "AI" features built into a lot of products aren't that useful.

make 5 days battery life - would be real life changing innovations. AI? meeaah? what for? We already have AI for filters like for ages :)

the most useful ML feature for me is text recognition on photos, helps to copy phone numbers and such
