AI Phones or AI laptops are IMO a pure marketing invention.

Imo, the current meaning for AI is just another way for companies to take even more of your data and embed more invasive technologies.

Edit: No thanks

I for one would like a local AI assistant of some sort, but I'd also want to be in full control of which of my files, correspondences, locations, contacts, purchases and sex-toys the assistant is aware of on an item to item basis.

Of course that's not going to happen because fuck my privacy.

Instead we're going to be forcefed something extremely privacy-invasive, which will really just be a new vehicle for selling stuff to us that we don't need and eventually it will leak all of the data.

Your average smartphone user definitely can't. I mght, but I strongly doubt it is worth the effort for now.

I'd love to know what an "AI phone" actually means, given that AI is the hottest buzzword to slap on everything since "blockchain".

Does it mean it just connects to chat gpt? Does it run a chatbot locally? Does it do image generation and deep fakes? Does it monitor all my activity to recommend stuff google now style? Does it create a realistic personality I'll fall in love with like in the movie "her"? What does it meanβ€½

i remember seeing this in a lemmy post somewhere.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

it means that it has hardware that can multiply matrices. Just like the gpu they already have can!
