Wasn’t this obvious?

🚨 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.

@CalimanYaro @chamath @elonmusk Yes - forgot about that. I put No. It should have been yes. Scammed by a placed and “authorised” ad. 😱

@bravenewcoin I remember that chart!

I am waiting for the tide to go out on AI and for the doom cycle because the signal to noise ratio will be so refreshing. Every chancer flushed out and the real players remain. The deafening sounds reverberating around the planet right requires noise cancellation to function.

@ClarksonsFarm1 Not yet but looking forward to it.

Now tell us how you really feel @Benioff 🤣

When you look at how Copilot has been delivered to customers, it’s disappointing. It just doesn’t work, and it doesn’t deliver any level of accuracy. Gartner says it’s spilling data everywhere, and customers are left cleaning up the mess. To add insult to injury, customers are then told to build their own custom LLMs. I have yet to find anyone who’s had a transformational experience with Microsoft Copilot or the pursuit of training and retraining custom LLMs. Copilot is more like Clippy 2.0. 🤷‍♂️#AI #Microsoft #Copilot https://t.co/tZaGlvSKqS

@jasonlk @HarryStebbings @20vcFund Such an excellent breakdown @jasonlk. Fascinating to hear about what’s in favour for LPs. Congrats @HarryStebbings & @20vcFund - I am so late to the pod. Good things come to those who wait!

@BoredElonMusk @sama It’s one way to handle internal / external comms. Pretty well handled, I’d say. Strong effort:impact ratio.

No GPUs were used in the creation of all these words.

Isn’t that a thing to behold?

@LastWeekTonight @iamjohnoliver don’t you think after Bird of the Year, this New Zealand politician deserves the spotlight:

The Arts TrashTalker (Spokesperson) politician.

People think it’s satire.

It’s absolutely genuine.
