Instead, he puts it in a trust.

Mr Beast says he could start a faceless channel tomorrow and hit 20 million subscribers in six months
“I could start a new channel tomorrow not using my face or my voice without ever promoting it and in six months have 20 million subscribers”
“It’s purely knowledge if you knew what I knew you could get 10 million views a video and 10 million subscribers no matter where you are right now within 6 months”
“It really is just knowledge”
@TheProductfolks Well he isn’t going to say that it’s not going to do that, is he?
Also, how is there no budget? We already see that token costs are rising/going to rise.
Not sure this will be uber successful. Apple has a huge ecosystem of apps that people use and rely on. It would need to replace most, if not, all of them from day one.
There is also the problem that LLMs inherently unreliable.
Lastly, how much will this cost on top of the phone and data plan for the token usage?
I don’t see it.
🚨 OpenAI is reportedly building a phone designed to replace the iPhone.
And it’s further along than anyone realized.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the same man who predicted every major Apple product cycle for 20 years, just dropped this.
Important details:
1: OpenAI is partnering with Qualcomm AND MediaTek to develop custom smartphone processors, not one chip partner, but two competing giants simultaneously
2: Luxshare has been named the exclusive system co-design and manufacturing partner, the same company that assembles Apple products
3: Mass production is targeted for 2028, the hardware roadmap is already in motion
4: The phone will run OpenAI’s own OS, replacing traditional apps entirely with AI agents that complete tasks autonomously, without you ever opening a single app
5: The processor is being designed around on-device AI performance, with complex tasks offloaded to OpenAI’s cloud infrastructure for seamless integration
6: OpenAI’s core thesis: users don’t want apps, they want results. The phone will continuously understand context, habits, and preferences in real time
This isn’t a gadget. It’s a direct attempt to replace the operating system layer that Apple and Google have owned for 20 years.
I’m doing more research, and what I’m about to post will blow your mind.
You’ll wish you followed me sooner, trust me.
Remember in math class you wondered why you need to learn PEMDAS when we had calculators?
You still need software engineers, and will always need software engineers. You need to be able to “show your work” even if you used a calculator.
Anthropic just pulled Claude Code from the Pro plan.
Pro users wanting it need Max now.
$100/month minimum. 5x jump.
I'm on Max 20x so I'm fine.
Flagging for anyone on Pro who's about to find out.
No announcement. Just a pricing page edit.
It makes no sense to me why Oracle fired more than 10% of their staff (~30,000 people) when the decisions that caused them to lose so much money were made by the people at the top. Those should have been the first heads to roll. You are literally keeping the people that made the mistake around and laying off the ones trying to keep the lights on.
Imagine a weapon for your brain and body, discovered over a century ago, that was so effective they had to bury it. It was too cheap to be profitable.
It's time to add that forgotten weapon back to your arsenal.
It's Methylene Blue. Here’s how it work… https://t.co/NACUfUqpyS
Yikes: The Lions reportedly made Frank Ragnow pay back “a portion” of his signing bonus after he retired.
Frank played for the Lions for seven seasons.
