@sineadbovell: Smartphones and the Internet (as we currently know it) will eventually go away. An agent- first world changes what we need from our devices and how much we need to look at screens. Which changes who and what will need to be on the Internet in its current form. This isn’t me personally building this and making it happen. The trend lines and investments have, for years, pointed to what changes are on the horizon. The biggest smartphone providers in the world have been investing in what they believe will be the next device. AI companies like OpenAI are also acquiring device companies. These changes aren’t going to happen overnight. I’m talking YEARS from now. But we are at the beginning of the end of the smartphone era. I’ve written and posted at length about the challenges that need to be solve with ai agents, along with the ethics and security vulnerabilities.
