They say your phone knows more about you than your mom. So why can't Siri tell me things like how much I spent on food delivery this month?

DM me if you want to try a phone that can.

People take my videos without giving me credit.

So I keep giving them more.

Here is @Shmall who is showing me a new AI-run mobile phone.

I think his system is way more interesting than what @sama showed me in a Mexican restaurant years ago here.

At the @fdotinc startup festival. Which starts in two hours.

I will have a lot more to say about what Sam is building soon.

Comes down to who's actually willing to go OS-level. Apple / Google have implicit agreements that the OS won't subvert app I/O, so it becomes a granular game of apps exposing app-intents to other apps (ie, Siri / Gemini). If nobody goes OS-level, every company building app-layer agents has access to the same models + data, so it becomes a matter of distribution.

@jxnlco as long as the codex agent you're running is imbued with The Rule

@wawilow108 @thepapabosh cooked my ass

[Sam Hall @Shmall]

upside of putting an agent at the os level: it can see everything

downside: everything means hundreds of databases with various structures

@thepapabosh used LLMs as evolutionary operators to discover the underlying semantics within the structures: https://t.co/VihNjYoWLG

You can look at apps' private data on android, if you have root. So I've been poking around in there and some apps do some actually insane stuff. ANDROID DATABASE HALL OF SHAME

@aidan_mclau it always blew my mind how much processing the iphone and pixel camera apps do in realtime and how it's completely taken for granted
